The location was fantastic, with several boulangeries, cafes, restaurants, and the Metro nearby. The shower pressure was great with lots of hot water, and both the bed and pull-out were comfortable. It was also a quiet location, which made for a very pleasant stay. The Wi‑Fi wasn’t great, but the bar just steps down the same street, Baddies, had the fastest internet ever and a fun, friendly atmosphere.

We were two adults, and the apartment was just right for us. Great location - easy access to explore the city - either by foot or by metro. Our first time staying on the left bank and we loved being so close to the 5th and 6th. The apartment itself was just like the photos - a very good sized bedroom, a large, comfortable pullout sofa, all the equipment to be able to prepare our own meals, and the large frosted windows provided nice natural light but also privacy (the apartment is on the ground floor). The street was also nice and quiet - we didn’t have any issue with noise. Our only regret - not taking advantage of the home theatre in the basement (too busy exploring the city)

Felt nervous as a genera location was displayed on Stayz but not the exact address was not, but all was revealed in the message the day before we arrived. The video on how to access lock box and door was very useful. Fantastic location close to metro lines 7 and 10, as well as many restaurants, boulangerie for morning Baguettes, supermarket and fruit shop. A few minor things that could be improved, which we will message the manager directly - nothing important, just nice to have’s. The apartment has a floor fan with cool misting if needed and heating. The “cave” or basement has been transformed into a cinema room which is a bit funky. It also was good storage space for unused luggage. Spacious for 2 people, clean and had everything you need for a short stay.

One reason we booked is due to good reviews, so we were surprised by what we found. Conveniently situated near 2 Metro stations, shops, bars, restaurants, the apartment is in a traffic-free street, however is situated above a Metro line with trains rumbling underneath all day. There was also noise from neighbours to the side and above. As stated the toilet and shower have separate doors off the lounge. The washbasin opposite the toilet has no door, so basically is in the lounge, with no privacy. Great to have a washing machine, though sadly it takes up most of the space in the shower room and there isn’t any room to get dressed. The size and set up is OK for a couple, and I can imagine it might be uncomfortable with 3 or more people in the apartment.Frosted windows give privacy so one can see neither in, nor out. Also as it is managed by a company (helpful when available) so any issues/messages outside working hours/weekends are not addressed immediately. A few issues including broken/missing kitchen items have been noted to the company, hopefully they will fix them notably the boiler is very noisy and water is alternately hot and cold; if you are a light-sensitive sleeper, there are no black-out curtains.We did not use the downstairs home cinema room, partly because we came to explore Paris, not watch movies, and partly because of the steep steps/ladder down. Personally I felt that the advert overhyped the apartment and I would not stay there again with these issues
