Pat and Hag's place is great. The beds were very comfortable, the soundproofing was absolutely excellent (it's a busy street, when the windows are closed you don't hear it, especially in the front bedroom where they've installed two layers of double-paned windows), the decor is stylish, the shower is big and comfortable, the bathroom has everything you need, as does the kitchen, the building is fully residential and neighbors are very pleasant, there's a lovely courtyard that the kitchen and two bedrooms' windows open onto, plenty of nice pillows and towels - really, they've thought of everything. You let yourself in using codes then get your key out of a lock box at the unit's door. The key includes a device to open the two security doors at street level. Pat and Hag were ready to answer any and all questions, quickly and to our satisfaction. The area is not touristy, in spite of being very close to the two biggest train stations in Paris, and there is every kind of food you could want nearby. The Metro is a quick, easy walk, there's a bus stop right outside the unit (which you couldn't hear with the windows closed) but we used the Metro. Good restaurants, including a delicious Italian place on the block, are everywhere. Bring adaptors for your devices, that's the one thing they didn't provide. We were there with our three, older teenagers and everyone had plenty of space. We enjoyed hearing the bells of Saint Vincent's church chime regularly, so Parisian! The building's occupants keep their trash and recycling in the courtyard, which smelled of air-freshener, but I guess that's better than the alternative! Overall this property is an excellent value.
