Among the many wonderful comforts in Olivier's flat is the BED! My partner and I prefer a firm mattress, and we have never slept better in an Airbnb. In addition to the bed, here are reasons we loved Olivier's: quiet, quiet rooms for sleeping and relaxing and enjoying watching Parisians use their terraces, HUGE, spacious flat that feels more luxurious than anywhere we have stayed at this price point, fully stocked kitchen with convenient appliances incl. dishwasher, and great shower with reliable hot water. We loved the location; it is even more convenient than we expected, with supermarkets and bakeries, a post office, a discount home goods store (for all those French kitchen gadgets to take home), and two subway stops within a few minutes' walk. Gare du Nord is officially one subway stop away, but it's actually a not-crowded and smooth little eight-minute walk. We were heartbroken to leave and can't wait to visit again.
