We absolutely LOVED our stay! The apartment was an excellent location for us. The walk wasn't too far from the train station, the historic neighborhood is a definite plus, there are many restaurants to choose from and groceries nearby. The apartment has a divine view and is well appointed. Communication is excellent, check in and out was easy. Very comfortable and would love to stay again in the future.
About forty minutes from CDG airport, which was about $45 uber. Once we were there, the neighborhood is bustling with activity. The flat is adorable with a beautiful view of the ET. Cute shops and great little cafes line all the steets near by. About $15 uber to the eiffel tower/ arc de triumph.
PLUSES: Centered in vibrant area with grocery stores, boutiques and restaurants. Good view of the Eiffel Tower. Adequate for two, not more, under 40 years old and traveling light. Has washing machine.
NEGATIVES: 5 flights of narrow spiral stairs. No safe. Personal clothing, electronics, and toiletries in apartment. Small apartment with too much furniture and plants for more than two people. Beds not made, needed to search for linens. Wet towels left by previous occupants.
Everything that may be a nightmare vrbo was here, except the owner was very nice and responsive .
Doors were dirty, carpet had definitely not been vacuumed. Dishes like coffee cups were dirty and stained. Got our door banged on by bottom neighbors when I had just showered saying water was flowing into their bathroomâŠ.
Backpack was stolen from inside secured hallway while luggage was being put into Uber for airport. Very suspicious. My Mom was watching the baggage as I brought each suitcase down 5 flights of stairs and went back up for all 4. Uber driver told her he was ready and started loading the luggage. She couldnât babe been far away or just outside for secondsâŠ. Backpack gone when I brought the last piece of luggage down. We ended up buying two smaller suitcases to add things from our checked luggage in order to make it safer for me to bring downstairs with the hope of not falling down the stairs with heavier luggageâŠanother $98 extra just to be safe in an apartment that was supposed to be on the ground floor and accessible in the first place. I have never ever had any problems with descriptions not being correct or the dirtiness or a place in all my teas using VRBO. Appalling.
2 60+ ladies travelling to Paris..
5 storey stairs was an exercice for musclesxafter 15000+ steps in Paris.
The owner nicely helped us upon arrival to climb luggages.
View is great from appartement. Bed is confortable but everything is dated and lack of storage makes bathroom and toilet busy with all kind of products.
Washer works great and be prepared to dry your clothes in the room.
Location is great to travel by metro and forget car , no space to park. Lots of restaurant and bars in the street so could be noisy if you keep windows open.
It is perfect for 2 persons and I donât suggest to be more as it is fairly small.
If comfort, space and new appliances are not a priority, if you want to be in the action, shops, little grocery stores, easy metro access, night life.., itâs perfect.
