We enjoyed staying at the apartment. It was a great value and location located near multiple METRO lines. It allowed us to lead a Parisian life. We went to the Marché de Bastille every Thursday and Sunday throughout our month stay. We loved the boulangerie across the street for our daily baguette traditional. There is a laundry mat right around the corner to make laundry day quick! The apartment is best suited for one or two people under 6 foot. The toilet can be rather cramped if you are tall. The refrigerator is quite large and allowed us to cook often with fresh ingredients from the market. In the summer, the apartment can be rather warm because there is no ac or fan provided. This was difficult even though the apartment featured large windows because at night we were constantly awoken by the traffic coming and going into the parking garage. The apartment was larger than it appears in the pictures and has a great layout. Xavier was helpful even though he was extremely busy. Would stay here again and would recommend to others, especially for a longer stay!
