Mariams place was lovely . Plenty of room for 2 Mums and their 3 teenage daughters to put all our huge suitcases and ourselves! The kitchen was very small and not really able to cook a meal but that was fine, able to make our cheese platters and breakfast and refrigerate a few bottles of wine! The apartment was in a great spot with the Metro 1 minutes walk away, cafes, boulangerie very close as well as a supermarket which was fantastic. We didnt get a chance to explore the area as we jumped on the Metro everyday to do our sight seeing and only had a few days in Paris however the area looked nice and felt safe. There is a school directly opposite the building so a safe area. The cute but small winding stairs up to second floor were very difficult for us to get our 5 huge suitcases up and down so keep that in mind however that was a small inconvenience for the cute apartment. Mariam responded quickly when we asked her a question. The only thing I would say to add to the apartment is that 5 women trying to shower in the morning and do their makeup in one tiny bathroom with one mirror meant it took us hours and much longer in the morning to get ready. Would love to see a big mirror like in the photos in the front room (no longer there) so that someone could do their makeup and look at themselves while others are showering etc or going to the toilet lol! There was unfortunately a smell in the bathroom from the toilet however we just left the window open as often as possible. The bathroom and shower were modern and clean. A lovely clean apartment with charm. Very happy with our choice. Thank you
