About this property
Beautiful design 1 BR with terrace DESA-V-A-P
This beautiful, wooden floored apartment is situated in a stone building. It has been recently redesigned and is very calm. The apartment offers 4 large windows, bringing natural light, a view over a small paved alley and a small terrace.
On entering the apartment walking straight out the small corridor, one has the large living room with the open kitchen. The kitchen is well equipped and perfect for cooking everyday simple meals. The living room is decorated with paintings and other dainty decoration items. It offers a comfortable sofa and a dining space which is comfortable for up to 4 guests.
To the left of the entrance one can access the bedroom. The bedroom profits from a large window, and a comfortable double bed.
Quite rare for a 1 bedroom apt, a dressing is available next to the bedroom.
The fully tiled bathroom is located next to the bedroom. It profits from a window. It offers a comfortable stand in shower, a vanity area and a toilet.
The apartment has a small private terrace that can be accessed from the living room. It will be very pleasant to use especially during the summer, to enjoy some laid back meals or drinks. It is convenient, safe and calm.
This location is a perfect base to visit Paris. The Marais and les Halles areas are within 5-10 minutes walking distance. There are 2 subway stations less than 5 minutes’ walk away. The apt stays 15 minute by subway to most interesting Paris locations AND is a very charming and restful area to be appreciated after a whole day shopping and walking through museums.

Everything looked exactly like the photos and although the checkin process was a bit unconventional, the instructions were accurate and easy to follow.
Very close to the Metro which made it extremely easy to get around to all the sites. Great neighborhood as well as across the main street with lots of restaurants/cafes.
This is a lovely apartment, small but with everything we needed, and we loved the location. We could walk to the apartment from the train station, and walk to the sights we wanted to see. The area itself has an interesting vibe too!
The apartment was perfect for our stay in Paris. The apartment was right on a busy street, but set back far enough to not feel like you were overwhelmed by noise. The apartment had plenty of space, with some very thoughtful decorations and amenities. The small outdoor space was perfect to unwind after a day of sightseeing.
A calm and peacefiull location. The appartement was exactly as shown on the web. The surroundings are authenticaly French not tourist’ designed. I was expecting instructions in French which wasn’t the case. Probably a marketing choice.
The curtain for the shower could be changed.
In bref, a pleasant place for a pleasant stay.
Wonderful location and apartment. The maid forgot to leave the key in the safe box. The description mentioned a pullout couch. There was none. Even the directions mentee pullout bed.
The 1bedroom apt was exactly how described. Clean and updated as good as you can in old Paris. I would recommend adding drapes to the kitchen window as there was a tailor business in the neighboring building and they could look right in. Also, the key to the apt is located 2 blocks away and felt like a scavenger hunt. It would be better to put a key inside the entryway.
I liked the apartment, it was super quiet (aside from hearing people going up and down the stairs but nothing major). Although it's right off a busy street, I liked secluded pretty alley way where it was located. A few people mentioned prostitutes' and yes, I also saw them but they mind their own business (I only saw one at a time and they were just leaning against a wall). Lots of locals doing their delivery, shopping, eating in cafes, etc. The street felt very safe. I was by myself and no issues at night. I liked all the different food places, easy of transportation options nearby.
The place was great for one person, for a couple I could see it being a bit tight space in the bedroom. There's no space for night tables and the mattress is against the wall, with only one side possible for getting in and out of the bed.
The bathroom sink is also pretty small, but typical for European bathrooms. There's lots of storage under the sink. It's located on the first floor so you do have to carry your luggage one fight of stairs. The kitchen in nice, large refrigerator.
The checking process was not the best. Although the instructions were super easy to follow, it was not ideal as a single person to have to go with your luggage to go to another street to get a lock attached to a random pipe and do the same at checkout.
I had a nice stay, I enjoyed my time in Paris and in this apartment.
Clean & safe. Check in a bit different but worked exactly as per instructions

Cozy within short distance to great eats
Was perfect for a 2 person get away. Short walk to a whole street full of restaurants. Walking distance to the Louvre.
Getting the keys was a bit like a geocache search - not something I'd want to do when very jet-lagged or raining.
This is a cute apartment with all the amenities one needs to cook light meals and to enjoy if you plan to explore Paris. While there was a bit more noise than I was expecting from neighbouring apartments, we had large windows we could open and close.
Very close to the metro, good restaurants and food markets are nearby.
The apartment complex was having work done which was disclosed prior to our arrival. It did mean that the balcony was not accessible and work men making noise outside during business hours.

A week in Paris
We lived the location in the center of the busy Saint Denis area. Close to Metro, walk to museums, Ille Cute, sidewalk cafes with great food and ambience, and groceries. The apartment was great, the balcony was not usable and the picture is misleading. That's the only issue with our stay. We otherwise enjoyed the apartment.

A large Parisian Appartment, Centrally located.
Positives: the apartment was large, the kitchen and bathroom were updated beautifully, only 5 minutes to closest Metro stop and only 7 or 8 minutes to the next closest one. Les Halles, with its bars and restaurants was only a couple of blocks away, and Notre Dame and the Ile de la Cite were about a 25 minute walk. Negatives: I would say the neighborhood was sketchy rather than upscale and my husband and I saw prostitutes daily between the closest Metro and the apartment. That said, we never had any problems in the neighborhood and I felt quite safe in our apartment.

Diverse location
This apartment was clean and had all the amenities necessary to stay a few days while vacationing in Paris. However the check in was somewhat challenging with instructions to pick up the key from a lockbox locked to a sewer pipe 3 blocks away, very strange way to get keys. Then you have to return them to the same place when checking out. We loved all the restaurants nearby and the close Metro stations. The neighborhood is very diverse and close by there are prostitutes hanging out in some of the hallways off the sidewalk . Also you cannot enjoy the patio outside the apartment , not nice and nothing like expected. Overall we had no issues staying here and it all worked out fine since we only showered and slept here since we were sight seeing all day.
This is a 3rd floor with no air conditioning and while it was 90 degrees with humidity of 100 degrees, we were told to open windows thst are only on 1 side of the apt and a building blocking any breeze! While Parisians were using fans and portable air, we were told we just had to deal with it. The apt was not as nice as the pictures show and the "patio" is only 2 pieces of wood layed together for "privacy". We would not recommend based on th way the owner treated us when we called.
O proprietário entrou em contato pra falar que este apto estaria com barulho/reforma é tivemos q ir pra outro. Era um apto bem antigo, perfil totalmente diferente desse, mas era OK. O que nos incomodou: soubemos disso depois de pagar a hospedagem e o proprietário fala com vc fora da plataforma. Ele migra para o email e exige assinatura de contrato, depois que mudou o apê, novo contrato, toda uma burocracia. Preferia que nosso contato fosse dentro da plataforma. E nossa máquina de lavar roupa estava quebrada e assim ficou. Ninguém fez nada depois q avisamos
