I was amazed at how masterfully Helene has organized this small space to provide a comfortable accommodation. Although I expect it could be quite warm in there on very hot days, we were lucky that it cooled off at night and could open 2 nice big windows to get some fresh air. Both the loft area bed and the pull-out couch were very comfortable. It is in the heart of the popular Marais neighborhood, so very convenient for access to that area. My daughter and I like to walk a lot so not too hindered by the fact that many typical places to visit were quite distant. Might be an issue for others. On the other hand, I'm from an area that has minimal public transportation, so we didn't take the bus and only used the metro once. I did get to use an ebike for the first time! Nice convenience to have a washing machine and drying rack in the apartment. Overall, we were glad we stayed here!
