Appartement 1900 de charme pour 2

This well maintained first floor apartment in a Hausmann-style building is beautifully furnished with inimical style. Bernard and Virginie met us on arrival to help with our cases and although they don't live near, they were always responsive to any of our needs during our long 44 night stay in Paris while working for the Euro2016 tournament.

The main bed was extremely comfortable and the bedroom is quiet with the windows closed. All the rooms have metal shutters should the street sounds become too noisy. The second bed is a sofa bed in one of the two lounges, but the room can be closed off for privacy. The well-stocked kitchen has a washer and a drier, another key feature of this apartment, although there is an eco-friendly dry cleaners in the street below for bed linen cleaning. The bathroom has a lovely roll top bath but a shower curtain would make showering easier.

The internet and wifi connection is excellent.The area is full of interesting shops, restaurants, including a late-night store opposite who sells home-made ready meals, which saved us a few nights after working very late. Walk up Rue Lamarck and you get to Sacré Coeur in about 15 mins. The 95 bus is very close and Metro stations Guy Moquet and Lamarck-Caulaincourt easily walkable.

We had good meals in many restaurants but the best was a chicken speciality restaurant Le Coq Rico in Rue Lepic. Special mentions to Le Refuge, Le Championnet, le Sagittaire, Le Cabanon de la Butte, Les Perchés du Chai, Tentazioni, Jeanne B, Le Cépage, San Antonito, Chez Frezet, and Le Square Marcadet. We had a lovely time staying in this apartment and would return again.
