Appartement spacieux et lumineux dans le centre de Paris

The owner of this property has put a great deal of thought and planning into decorating and stocking this apartment. It is not your typical dorm-room style rental. This is someone's beautifully decorated part-time home. The location is near perfect for a Paris stay. It is a 5 minute walk to the Centre Pompidou, and there are 2 Metro stations within 2 short blocks. Other 5 minute walk away stations include Rambuteau at the Centre Pompidou and Chatelet at Les Halles. Plus there are a number of bus lines nearby. And if you order an Uber, it will pull up right in front of the building's street entry. But putting transportation aside, much of Paris is walking distance from the apartment. The Marais with its endless restaurants and shops is just a few minutes walk. The apartment is accessed by entering the building street entry with a keypad code, then the apartment building is entered after passing through a small courtyard (typical Paris), you then walk up 22 easy stairs to the first landing and from there you can take the elevator to the 4th floor. The master bedroom has a very comfortable king size bed, and the room is spacious. There is a large closet (with lots of hangers) and a chest of drawers. Great natural light comes into the apartment with easy to open big windows. Better yet, the lighting in the apartment is expertly done -- abundant lighting throughout -- even the nightstand lamps. Oh... there is a wireless contemporary easy to use printer in the bedroom which my wife and I utilized. The walk in shower is in the bathroom next to the bedroom - a bit narrow but perfectly comfortable. The sink and mirror have good lighting and a lot of counter space. The separate washing machine and dryer are also there, under the counter. They worked well... easy to use. The shower did not leak, and there was abundant steady hot water. The galley kitchen had wonderful cookware, knives, and every conceivable kitchen gadget. The dishwasher worked well. There are real sets of plates, glasses, and silverware. A coffee brewer, a Nespresso machine, microwave, toaster, -- all worked perfectly. And the stove was good. And there are mixing bowls, a large wooden salad bowel, and lots of kitchen supplies. A real pleasure. There is a REAL dining room table. Terrific high speed reliable wireless. A large high def TV with cable. A local phone. Nice iron and ironing board. Umbrellas. A grocery push cart. The second bedroom is small with 2 beds. Toilet in separate room.

We enjoyed our stay at Hadia’s apartment in Paris. It was well equipped — especially nice to have a washer, dryer and a full kitchen. Bed was fine - a little firm for my taste, but otherwise good. Hadia was very responsive to my questions and requests. You have to walk up one flight of stairs to get to the elevator, but the elevator was a decent size and was in working order (not always a given). Couldn’t hear much outside noise (other than the very noisy police sirens) or noise from neighboring units. Close to metro stations, restaurants, and grocery stores.

Our family of 4 had a great stay at this apartment. The location was great and the apartment itself was spacious and well-stocked. We made breakfast every morning but didn’t cook lunch or dinner. There are several patisseries nearby offering croissants and other pastries that are awesome! Easy access to RER and Paris metro.

Hadia, the owner, is terrific to work with. She answered questions promptly and thoroughly and offered timely advice.

The only blip we had was the heat which is not a reflection of the apartment but the time of year. The windows are very good at keeping out the street noise but the heat made it necessary to keep the windows open. The street noise was normal for a city so to be expected. That said, the scooters are really loud and high pitched! We sure could have used some relief from the heat maybe with room A/C for the bedrooms?

All in all, we really enjoyed the apartment and the space as well as access to a kitchen over a hotel room any day!

Note, there is construction going on next door that started early in the morning.

We truly enjoyed our stay here! We appreciated many things about this place including its central location....comfortable, light-filled rooms, an adequately stocked kitchen for preparing meals, etc.! It helped us feel as though we were experiencing Paris in a more authentic way (than if we had stayed in a hotel). We will happily stay here again if it is available next time we visit Paris!

We loved Hadia’s light filled apartment. It’s central location, close to transport and shops, was very convenient and away from the tourist crowds. The apartment itself has lots of space - it would just two of us but would fit 4. It is beautifully decorated and full of personality but also very practical with a washer, dryer and dishwasher. Hadia was always very helpful and prompt with her replies. Thank you Hadia!
