This apartment is in the charming neighborhood of Montmartre. The place itself is decorated beautifully, smelled great, was very clean, and the kitchen is fully equipped. The chair and the handle to the window was broken when I arrived. Out of panic, I messaged the host and she assured me that she knew it was broken but did not have time to fix it yet. One night I did find a cat in the apartment that had gotten in through the window, despite the apartment being on the 3rd floor. Apparently the building has a stray cat that they have given shelter and food. I really do not like cats, but the cat was friendly and I was able to eventually just pick it up and put it outside. I was afraid as the next day there was a sign in the courtyard saying the cat had a parasitic infection and to avoid contact. However, I washed my hands immediately after contact and feel fine. Although buildings having a pet is not common in America, I would not say that this is an issue, as it does not seem the cat has been there very long and that the neighbors were just trying to save the cat so it would not starve. So if you are allergic to cats and it is there when you arrive, just keep the first window closed. I love Montmartre and was very happy to find this apartment so close to the metro, great restaurants, and a supermarket. The apartment is very dimly lit. Even with all the lights on, it was pretty dark in the apartment and hard to see at night. The television did not work, or I just couldn't figure it out. I would suggest maybe the host leave instructions as it appears to be a private TV service like apple tv or something, and not regular cable. The bathroom shower does not have a door, so if you are not careful you will wet the entire floor of the apartment. This was not an issue for me as I knew how to shower without flooding the apartment. However I would suggest any other visitor to be aware of this. The neighbors in the building were very friendly and talked to me and were very warm even without knowing me at all. The kitchen had a small dishwasher and a washing machine which was a plus. Overall, I would suggest this place to anyone traveling as a single person or a couple. I would also like to emphasize again how nicely decorated the apartment was, including little details such as how amazing it smelled. Thank you Aurelia for letting me stay, and I hope I was a good resident for you. I would love to stay again if you would have me.
