We stayed here in June 2024 for 4 nights as our base for a first visit to Paris. Upon arrivial on our first day, we found the reception door locked, even though it was during reception hours, but a quick buzz on the intercom and we were let in and greeted by a friendly lady. We had a truly terrifying moment when she could not find our booking (we had taken a print out of our confirmation) either with the confirmation number or the name of the booking, thankfully though she found it eventually! In terms of the room, we were on the second floor, with a view out over to the river and as others have said the road too. We found no issues with road noise, in fact, despite being able to see it, we could not really hear it from inside the room. Granted we kept the window closed the whole time, but that was because the Air conditioning unit, did a perfect job of keeping the room at an ok temperature. Our room was clean and the facilities in the appartment, were as we hoped and expected. We had a microwave, a fridge with an ice box, two hobs and plenty of plates, bowls, cups, glasses and cutlery for the two of us. There was also a chopping board, a bread knife and bottle opener, alongside washing up liquid, a tea towel and a sponge. It was a slight shame not to be in a position to eat together, we had two chairs and a table and a desk, but we had to each sit and eat at one on our own. There was a wardrobe in the room, with plenty of space and coat hangers. The bed was comfy and there were two spare pillows in the wardrobe, which was a nice touch. My only slight criticism is although the bedding was clean, it had seen better days. There was a tear down the side of the duvet and a few questionable stains, that could have benefited from a hot wash and some stain remover. They weren't dirty but they could have looked better. The bathroom was a good space, the shower worked fine, the toiletries were fine and we had spare toilet roll in the bathroom cupboard. I couldn't get the heated towel rail to work but that was the only bathroom issue. I really liked that there was a closeable door between the living space and the hallway leading to the bathroom and main door. It meant you had a bit more of a noise blocker to the hallway and that if someone got up in the middle of the night, the bathroom light did not dominate the whole room. For those in other reviews who state this is in a poor location, we did not find that at all! RER Line E, is a 5 minute walk away and RER Line A is a 15 minute walk away. The trains are regular and we explorded pretty much the whole of Paris from here! We went to Notre Dame, Les invalides, Eiffel tower, Arc de triomphe, Champs d'elysee, Eglise saint Eustasche, Opera House, Louvre, Saint chapelle and Sacre coeur! All from those two lines as our starting point. If your willing to walk a short distance, it's really not an issue at all! The only other transport we used was the Batobus so that we could experience that. Near both lines, there were supermarkets, to get supplies (we didn't pay extra for breakfast and prefered to buy our own and have a second pastry breakfast near the transport links) so everything was near by. It was possible to walk along the river and through a pretty path (that is gated and locked, so check the times) between houses on the way to the lines, which was a very beautiful route to take. Overall we really liked our stay and would recommend it to anyone wanting to go to Paris and not having to spend a small fortune to do so! If your just willing to walk a really short distance and put that small effort in, it's really not a challenge at all!
