Loved this apartment! It had air conditioning which was a godsend during the unusual heat wave in Paris this week! Most businesses and places do NOT have A/C in Paris. When we got overheated, we just hopped on the metro train and got off at the station which is right around the corner from the apartment to take a break inside. Also there was a taxi line right there at the metro which made it easy to get back across town to the Eurostar train to London when we checked out. The apartment was clean, had all the necessities and was very secure. There were little groceries and restaurants around the corner and a neat street for strolling, Rue Cler, nearby. It was about a 10 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower lawn down one street at the end of this small street so it was easy to walk and navigate. The unit has a clothes washer and there is a coin laundry across the street to dry that takes the 1 euro coins. Also it was on the first floor which made it so convenient not to have to carry luggage up and down stairs. The windows led out to the secured courtyard for residents only, not the street, so no worries there. I felt completely safe and it was a good neighborhood. The kitchen had all the amenities of home. The bathroom had a glass rainfall shower and even a towel warmer. We loved this place. Note this is an efficiency apartment with a separate bathroom. If you bring 4 people, they will be sleeping in the same room on 2 queen size convertible beds. If we make it back to Paris, we will definitely stay here again. I can't say enough about this place, loved it so much!
