The perfect place to stay in Paris
I must admit that I was attracted to this property on the strength of the photograph of the living room on the HomeAway website. It turns out that the rest of the apartment is just as attractive! We very much enjoyed our five night stay in this beautiful and well-appointed apartment.
The situation of the apartment turned out to be ideal for everything we wanted to do. There were (at least) two Metro stations within easy walking distance of the apartment and the Place Maubert contains several interesting shops, bars and restaurants away from the main tourist areas. Being set a little way back from the main road that runs alongside the Seine (within sight of Notre Dame and busy with tourists), we didn’t have to worry about traffic and people passing by the apartment. Also, with the apartment being on the first floor and with the bedrooms facing into the secluded (and secure) courtyard, we were able to enjoy a quiet night’s sleep in the heart of the city.
Although we weren’t sure about having to walk through the study bedroom in order to reach the main bedroom, because the main bedroom has its own en suite facilities it turned out not to be a problem at all – we had no reason to disturb the person in the study bedroom during the night.
Christine was very friendly and helpful. She speaks and writes very good English, so communication was not a problem. She contacted us in advance to find out when we would be arriving and was there to greet us upon arrival. She also came to say goodbye when we were leaving.
We are hoping to return to Paris in the near future, and intend staying here again (subject to availability).
