The flat is located in a very convenient position, very close to shops and to the Montsouris park. Twice a week there is a market just across the road, where any kind of fresh food can be found. The place is well served by public transportation, with two bus stops (lines 62 and 21) within 20 meters from the door. With five minute walk one can easily get to metro 6, rer b and tram 3. The kitchen is fully equipped. The flat itself is bright and cosy. The owner is welcoming and helpful in case of necessity. In 2010 I spent about three months in this flat and I had a very enjoyable time.
The flat is big enough for 3 people to live for a short stay. It's very bright, not noisy. The bus, metro,rer b and supermarket are not far. The owner is very good person though we meet only for a few minutes, but we talked a lot on the email. We had a good time in Paris.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 week stay here. Its location on Rue Glaciere was convenient to the Metro and Bus as well as to shops and Montsouris Park. The Housebook was quite comprehensive and we dined out at several of the recommended restaurants with great enjoyment. It was comforting to know the owner lived nearby and was available to provide support if required.
Ho soggiornato col mio ragazzo una settimana in questo delizioso appartamento a pochi minuti dal centro di Parigi a cui si arriva usufruendo della metro più vicina, Glacière. L'appartamento è veramente funzionale e confortevole! Fin da subito ci è piaciuto tanto; c'è tutto:WI-FI, lavastoviglie, un bel bagnetto, una bella tv, un letto comodissimo, un bel balcone e, per finire, un supermercato Franprix a due passi! Il primo giorno abbiamo notato che non funzionava il phon ma il proprietario gentilissimo ha provveduto subito a farcene avere uno nuovo. Se dovessimo,in futuro, tornare a Parigi, soggiorneremo di nuovo in quest'accogliente appartamentino!
This is an excellent apartment in a super location. Nothing fancy, but it is cozy, comfy, well-run, and truly very nice. Perfect for a couple, and would be OK for three as well. An easy walk to the Metro, to the train to the airport, or even to some of the main attractions in Paris. The owner is very helpful and knowledgeable of Paris, and I will try to stay here again if I am ever back in town!
I stayed in this appartment for two months (1 July 2014-31 August 2014). Given the amount of time I spent there, I really got to know the place. I cannot recommend it highly enough. The place is well equipped with washing machine, dishwasher, wifi, tv etc. It is bright and airy - two doors open onto a balcony, from which you can see the Montparnasse tower and the top of the Eiffel Tower. The appartment is clean and well maintained. I lived there on my own but my wife stayed for a week and there was room enough for two - no sense of it being cramped at all. The main bed is large and comfortable. I had several visitors come and stay too, and was told that the guest bed is comfortable, and has a proper mattress.
A big plus for me was that the landlord lived upstairs, just in case anything went wrong. The landlord was very friendly, giving advice on amenities in the local area. Communication with him (before and during my stay) was quick and easy. When looking for a place to stay in Paris my biggest concern is the trustworthiness of the landlord - but I had no problems at all with this rental.
The appartment is well served by local transport links. The bus to and from Orly airport stops a few hundred metres away; there are two metro stops within walking distance; a bus right outside the appartment will take you to the centre of the city (Place St Michel) within 15 minutes. I was in Paris to work at the National Library Francois Mitterand, and another bus over the road from the building will take you directly there in 15 minutes.
As for the local area, there is a supermarket next door to the building and several bakeries and cafes within a minute's walk. Within 10 minutes' walk is the Butte aux Cailles district, with it's cafes, bars, restaurants and small shops making it feel like a small village within the city - it has a really great atmosphere to it.
I would not hesitate to stay here again.
