CHARMING DUPLEX PENTHOUSE WITH GREAT VIEW IN BEST LOCATION

Team of Dan and Robin were great. The Paris 7th is where you want to be. Everything was as in ad. Only negative was tight ceiling in bedroom/loft. Overall fantastic!

My wife and I returned last week after spending ten days in Dan’s apartment. From the very first internet contact, to Robin’s introduction to the workings of the flat, to our final day in Paris, all arrangements were smoothly and easily made. The apartment itself is small, but well designed, comfortable and very secure. The angled bedroom ceiling was a bit of a challenge, but we slept very well on the confortable bed. The air-conditioned bedroom was wonderful after spending many hours walking in pretty warm weather. The bathroom is modern, and the shower had an endless supply of hot water. The kitchen has all the necessary appliances and accessories, and the drinks and snacks in the refrigerator when we first arrived were greatly appreciated. We actually spent more time in the apartment than we had anticipated as, on most days, we had our big meal in various restaurants at lunchtime and then ate a lighter dinner in the evening as we relaxed. We had some familiarity with the area as we had stayed in the 7th Arrondissement on a previous vacation, but we checked Google maps each morning to see how to get to various locations and what form of public transportation was best for longer excursions. The location (and view of the Eiffel Tower) is great, and the apartment is a short walking distance to several metro and bus stops; we had no problem easily getting around town. The one negative had nothing to do with the apartment, but the fact that so many restaurants and shops were closed in August, particularly on our street. That said, we had a very restful, stress-free and enjoyable vacation with Dan’s apartment as our home base.

My daughter and I had a nice stay at Dan's apartment. The location near the Varenne subway stop was super convenient. We had previously booked an apartment near Rue Cler but it was cancelled three weeks before our trip so we had to scramble to find a new place. I was sad that our location had changed but it turned out for the best. I felt Dan's location on Rue de la Bourgogne was more legitimate and real in terms of actual Parisians living there. There are two convenient grocery stores literally a few doors down from the apartment, an ATM, and a patisserie. The only downside was that we were there during an extreme heatwave. The air conditioner in the bedroom was great, but the living area/kitchen/bath were extremely warm. Again, it was very hot in Paris during our stay.

Dan’s apartment is great! Dan was very helpful with information ahead of time. He had Robin meet us and show us around. Robin answered all our questions and gave us his number if we needed anything. Very friendly! The property is located within walking distance to the Eiffel Tower. The view of the tower from every window of the apartment is incredible. We utilized the subway with ease from the stop about 1-1/2 blocks away. We walked to many shops and restaurants from the apartment. The boulangerie down the street had THE BEST croissants we found in Paris, and we explored many places! We loved the charm of the building. The elevator is a bit scary; it moves very slow and two people need to squeeze in to fit. But we only used it going up. The spiral staircase was fun to walk down every day. We had the best experience here. If you’re contemplating renting the apartment because you are going to Paris for the first time and you know nothing, trust me when I say you won’t be making a mistake by choosing this place!

Waking up everyday to a view of the Eiffel Tower is unbelievable. We would definitely stay there again. The size was perfect for two people. It also had a nice bathtub which was good for a soak after a day of walking around Paris. Very convenient to the metro. The AC is located in the bedroom and kept the apartment very comfortable. My daughter and I had a wonderful time. The bedroom is in the loft so you do have to be able to manage stairs but we had no problem. Definitely a winner!
