We had a great week at Carlos’s apartment. It is truly a 7th floor walk up and the hallway is a bit shabby right now (it seems they are in the middle of installing an elevator, so there was some construction work during the day) but the interior of the apartment is nicely decorated and peaceful. The space may be tight if you’re on the taller side. The kitchen, though small, is very well equipped and we were able to do a fair amount of basic cooking. The area itself is super convenient to sightseeing and easy walk to the Marais area, but definitely in the middle of a ton of shops and cafes, so if you’re looking for a genuine quaint neighborhood experience this might not be your cup of tea. Overall, great experience! Also - a view of the sacre coeur from the kitchen makes the walk up worth it!
