The apartment was in a very good area for accessing the metro and grabbing coffee and petit dejeuner. There were many restaurants in the area and places to shop for basic needs. The communication from the management company was excellent! Some of the best I’ve experienced. They gave clear instructions for key pick up and getting into the building. They also checked in a few times to be sure we were doing fine. They answered questions about the property quickly. In addition, the kitchen was perfect for us for cooking light breakfast and the second shower was an added convenience-through the lights in the downstairs shower room would not stay on. The good rating instead of fantastic is because this isn’t the property for everyone. The attic style location caused trouble for those of us that are taller because we kept hitting our heads on the lower parts of the apartment. The outdoor terrace is in direct view of other apartments windows which made for a very public viewing location. That said, it is the perfect spot for those who are planning to be out and about exploring most of your day because the location is convenient.

This is a spacious, clean, and quiet apartment. The beds are comfortable. We appreciated the kitchen, dining table and couch. The apartment is very close to the metro and there are a number of restaurants nearby. However, the entryway smells of pee and there is a dark corridor to go down to get to the door to the place, then another long corridor to get to the stairs. The area, while lively, gets a bit run down as you go north. There is a lot of graffiti on the buildings and many shops are boarded up. We had to pick up the keys from a liquor shop north of the place. And we weren't given the code to give to the cashier until just before we needed to pick up the keys/fob. So, we were a bit nervous about arriving in the city and not having all of the details of the checkin.The flat is an "attic", squeezed into the interior of the apartment, above the inner courtyard. It is surrounded on four sides by the apartment building. It is as if someone filled in the courtyard of a typical Parisian apartment building with a small flat. So, you cannot look out onto the street and it is mostly skylights and windows that look into other people's windows. The patio boards are soft and we didn't want to walk on them.Communication was poor with the company that manages this place. We had problems with the heating system and they didn't get back to us until two days later, when they just sent an email saying that they trusted that we figured it out.

Loved the apartment and the neighborhood. Clean, pretty apartment, w comfortable beds and spare but very functional kitchen. We didn't make it out to the terrace much but in warm weather it would be amazing. The location is ideal - great restaurants and bakeries nearby, close to subway/bus but also close enough to walk a lot of places. 2 things to be aware of: there are stairs, and there is only 1 set of keys. If you are a mobile group that likes to travel in a pack (or doesn't mind waiting in a Cafe) this is the place for you.

The apartment was just right for our needs, Clean, cozy, and close to public transport, We enjoyed our time exploring the local cafes and shops nearby,
