We booked Eric’s place because of the affordable price and location.
Pros:
-Price: compared to other spots in Paris this seemed to be on the less expensive side.
-Location: it is right by the metro line and you are able to get to places from the metro line 1 quickly.
-Furnishings: overall it is well furnished and modern, it was great to have a washer dryer in house. Also, having two bedrooms seems unique for Paris.
Cons:
-Noise: It is loud!!! Especially if you are on the room above the street. Most nights people were out until about 2am and they begin cleaning the streets around 4-5. If you have trouble sleeping with noise I would look elsewhere.
-Lack of fans/AC: as there is no air conditioning you pretty much have to sleep with the windows open. This not only lets in noise, but also mosquitoes. We got bit up quite a bit.
-Missing some basic amenities: There were no extra towels, or paper towels. There are some shops around, but be prepared
