Pierre's apartment was beautiful! He originally arranged for someone to take us to the apartment but as our TGV were late, we couldn't meet up in the end and did a self check in.
So as mentioned, the apartment has no lift. We took our chances. Almost died carrying 2 heavy luggages up but I guess it was worth it. It's a beautiful apartment and it was much bigger than I thought. The sofa bed was so comfortable and we just slept in the sofa on the first night before our third friend arrive to sleep in the bedroom.
The apartment is quiet at night, we slept well! Easy walks to the metro / supermarts. However if you're looking for a longer stay, there's no washing machine, which can be a little troublesome. And there isn't a microwave either. We stayed 3 nights, so it didn't bother us much. Definitely recommend anyone who's interested to stay in this area and doesn't mind the stairs.
