Brijid’s property was amazing. We had a horrible experience at a hotel (horrible location, staff and rook) that i had to book an emergency new place by next day. Brijid accommodated it quickly with this beautiful location just a half mile from the Louvre.
Although a but pricey, it is still cheaper then any local hotel that offers a separate bedroom suite with its one bed and a separate full size bed and sofa bed in the living room.
The design was modern but did have a few loose pieces, like the shampoo/soap tray in the shower that fell on my girlfriends leg (heavy metal tray) when she was showering, as the holders in the tile wall are lose and the toilet paper tray was loose as well, but nothing we couldnt deal with. Toilet is in a separate small room with its own door which was great as one could shower at same time in separate shower room. The design of the space was very modern and gave us a very comfortable and welcoming feeling.
I would highly recommend for families or couples or single/traveling friends.
The ONLY thing we did not like is that the Air conditioner unit was locked and couldnt be used manually. It seemed as if it was restricted or only accessible via remote access which we did not have. With the bedroom not having any windows, it got warm at night which i like sleeping in colder conditions.
Also, the large windows in living room, great to let air in (2nd floor unit with an elevator) but once the cafe opens downstairs, you will start smelling cigarette smoke from customers smoking in the cafe patio area, so dont leave those windows open when you leave to discover Paris. This room has a no smoking policy so we were afraid to leave the windows open longer then 30 minutes during cafe open hours.
The building is very secure, with cameras throughout exterior and a washer and dryer room in the basement accessible by all building tenants (would not recommend leaving your clothes unattended).
All in all, we would definitely recommend this place to all travelers. Just be patient with the host as it does take them a while to reply (over an hour or two) but they are very accommodating and do not bug you or micromanage your way of living throughout your stay.
