This apartment was perfect for our vacation. The location is spot on in the middle of an amazing Paris neighborhood. All the foodie things you want on vacation are within a few blocks of any direction. You have the option of several different bread, cheese, pastry, and coffee shops to choose from. Plus multiple cafes and restaurants with a variety of menus/cost/ambiance, but all with the variety and quality you expect from a Parisian dining experience. There is also a fairly large (by European standards) supermarket less than two blocks from the apartment. It hosts a great variety of fresh produce, meats, cheeses, and the wonderful condiments you can only find in Europe. As the apartment provides a small, but fully equipped kitchen, we made several trips to that market, and had fun making some of our own lunches and dinners. This is our second trip to Paris. As I love to cook, it’s great fun for me to create a menu with items that I can’t find at home. Besides a great location, the apartment itself is very comfortable. It’s on the small size compared to what we may expect from USA standards, and it involves walking up three flights of spiral stairs, but that is to be expected if you want to feel like you’re in Paris. I loved the fit and ambiance of this older building and being able to look down through the large windows onto a small courtyard below. To us, that’s all part of truly enjoying our location, as opposed to a being in the nondescript room of a hotel chain. The apartment bed is queen sized, and quite comfortable. In that same room is a private closet for the toilet and a very nice fully tiled shower enclosure with both a rainfall showerhead, and a handheld head with several adjustments available. The other room is larger with a good sized sitting area, with the kitchen laid out on one wall, and a small dining table. We found the sitting area easy to relax in, and the location fairly quiet, so we always woke up feeling well rested and excited to start our day. The one caution we have is the floor by the bed. There is quite a large bump up in about two feet of the flooring. Not that unusual to find in any 100+ year old building that has been renovated to accommodate modern utilities, but it is something to be aware of. Not a big deal. We got used to it after the first day. All in all, we couldn’t think of a more perfect spot for our vacation. Clean and orderly, but decorated with a very “homey” feel. We would very happily stay there again.
