This apartment is in a great location! It felt like visiting Grandma's house, in a good way! I especially enjoyed the giant living area/library which had two large windows which open into the building's courtyard.
This rental is clearly lived in by the owners which I find charming, though I'm sure some guests are more used to airbnb only ikea furnished spaces. This listing is not that. Beware also the bathroom and kitchen are 'original' which didn't bother me. What was a bit odd was that the bathrooms had a mat/rattan/carpet which I can't imagine comes clean.. But not a big deal in the grand scheme of things.
I did have a very strong reaction to the smell/allergens in the space. I can't be 100% sure that it wasn't just pollen from outside, but I did go through many rolls of toilet paper and tissues dealing with a very bad allergy reaction (even after taking 3x daily allergy meds). I noticed an ash tray, and the kitchen had a permanent smell (which to me smelled like salami, though I don't eat meat so it was very off putting) - given that, and that I've visited and spend quite a bit of time in Paris and haven't had a reaction elsewhere I'm inclined to think I was allergic to something in the apartment.
Besides the allergies I thought this was unique, affordable, and a good location. Of course this listing won't be for everyone (see photos and notes).
Anyways this review feels negative, which I want to be clear that I did find this space charming.
If it weren't for the allergies I wouldn't have much negative to say (except for maybe the carpet/mat in the bathrooms).
