St-Germain-des-Prés historique Apt / Terrasse / AC / Internet

The property was not the one I originally booked. We waited at our original accommodation for ages, then had to contact the manager via email. We were then given another address to go to, so we had to get a taxi, which was really expensive. We also had a lot of luggage and had to walk a long way with our luggage to find a taxi stand. All these delays made the beginning of our trip quite stressful. When we finally got to our place, we had no internet and were told that we had been sent an email about everything (which we did not receive). Our new place was perfect which is why I’ve given the place such a good rating.

We had an excellent 10 day stay. The apartment is compact with all the amenities needed including a washing and drying machine. The two code locks on the outside entrance proved to be an initial issue but this was quickly by Thierry. The apartment is close to restaurants, bars, boulangeries and supermarkets. The Louvre, Notre Dame and Museum d'Orsay are within easy walking distance. We used Saint Michel metro as the area around Rue Saint Andre des Arts is our favourite.

Words cannot describe how sad I was to leave this apartment. I called it home for 2 weeks while staying abroad and it was so much more than I ever imagined it could be. I always felt safe, it had every amenity that I needed and Thierry was available for any questions I needed answered. It is about a 10 minute walk from the Notre Dame Metro and about 5 from the Odeon area. The apartment itself is very quite for sleeping but close to cafe's and shopping. Perfect for 1-2 people and the price can't be beat. I cannot wait to go back!

Thierry was very accommodating and the coded key entry made check-in & out very easy. It was like a small hotel room with kitchen equipment & large windows opening to a small patio. Must get TV instructions from Thierry - do not follow instructions posted on wall. TV & wi-fi worked great. Two blocks from Rue St. Andre des Arts & Rue Buci with tons of cafes & eating accommodations, open fruit market & grocery store as well as clothing & shoe stores & souvenir shops. Three blocks from the Odeon metro stop for 2 major lines - Nos. 4 & 10, plus easy strolling along Bvd. St. Germain or up to the river or towards Bvd. St Michel & tons of inexpensive restaurants on rue de la Huchette. Been to Paris a number of times & this is worth a return visit.

The apartment was lovely and well-provisioned. It was safe, quiet and in the heart of the museum area we intended to visit. It met all our needs with exception of internet connection. We were never able to use our ipad, iphone, or mac-air laptop to research travel, pre-buy museum tickets, check museum times of operation and so on. But we

adjusted to that but it would have saved us the time spent in standing in long lines. I would recommend this apartment. Thierry was approachable and a good resource but

was unable to assist with the internet problem.
