A Gem in Paris
Submitted: April 4, 2011

I hope this review serves anyone interested in visiting Paris and staying at this apartment. First, the owners are very professional, very responsive, very kind and actually took the time to walk us around the neighborhood to show us the food market, bakeries, etc. There is a wonderful live food street market that will have everything your heart desires (fresh seafood, meats, pates, fruits, cheeses, flowers, wines, coffee). The building itself is clean and well maintained with a building manager onsite in entrance lobby. There is no lift elevator to the apartment. But it is only a flight of stairs. If you stop reading here because that is important you will be missing out on a great apartment. The apartment itself is as the pictures show, and even better when you see it in person. Everything is new and the kitchen is excellent, which I used in making breakfast for us from my return from my early market walk. The bathroom shower pressure is very good and has as much hot water as you like. We were a family of four and also having the ability to wash and dry your clothes was an added benefit. The separate bedroom is quite large for Paris standards. The bed is very comfortable with plenty of closet space. There is a desk for your laptop with the ability to connect wifi or thru ethernet. I had a problem with this and the owner was quick to respond and actually came to the apartment and tested the system and my computer was working fine throughout my stay. I can attest to the sofabeds comfort because I slept in it throughout my stay ceding the main bed to my mother and daughter. Finally, I would like to say thank you to Gilles and Linda for sharing this gem and we hope to come back to Paris soon to enjoy this home away from home. Merci beaucoup!
