Linna’s apartment was perfect for us as a family of 4. Our 10 year old daughter loved having her own room and double bed and our 6 year old son loved the bunk bed room and toys that he could play with. The apartment is very modern but homely as well being decorated and fitted out to a very high standard with lots of lovely personal touches.
Location wise it was perfect being literally 5 minutes walk to the metro line which then took you to the Eiffel tower in about 4 stops. You could also then continue on to many other locations all across Paris as the metro is very easy to use. The local bakery was closed during our stay in August but there was another one on Rue d’Auteuil which was only 5 minutes and excellent. We also ate on that road at Le Moulin d’Auteuil which was delicious and great service.
We were met by Linna’s Mother who kindly showed us the whole place and explained how everything worked and work well everything did! They’d kindly left us some provisions in the fridge and some well needed coffee after a long drive.
We drove to Eurodisney from there in about an hour which was great. If you are coming by car though then you need to think about parking. Maximum stay outside the apartment is 2 hours. It is however free between 8pm and 9am. We did find some free parking on road at a nearby (10 minutes walk) parkland area – Route d’Auteuil aux lacs. We left the car their during the day and then just moved it back outside the flat at night as whilst the free parking is OK it isn’t well lit and so I wasn’t sure about leaving the car their overnight.
We’d happily return and recommend the apartment to anyone wanting to visit Paris.
