The flat was wonderful and close to all the beautiful sights in Paris. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A few problems, the water closet sink faucet handle didn’t work, the kitchen faucet worked but was not fastened properly, the comforters were clean but stained, and the window over the spiral staircase, when opened was a hazard to anyone climbing up the staircase.

We absolutely loved the apartment. The location was incredible in the historic city center. Many sites were walkable not to mention near, cafes, shopping and a couple of metro stations. Great communication with the owner, about getting in and recommendations. It is a 3rd floor walk up which we loved the views and space with 2 bedrooms, 2 showers and one toilet closet. We aware you need to buy a few essentials once there yourself. Which wasn’t a big deal. Love this place and would highly recommend it.

The location of this apartment was terrific. In the heart of St Germain des Pres, walkable or metro distance from almost everything we had hoped to see. The challenge was that the apartment is at the top of four flights of steep stairs. We are all older and I was grateful that no one was mobility impaired, but it was a slog getting our bags up so many stairs. I would have liked to know in advance. Our host was responsive when we had a problem with access.

4.0 / 10.0

This apartment has a lot of potential but currently misses the mark. Like many of the reviews state, for this being a short term rental, some basic items should be included that are not. You have to buy everything, there is no toilet paper included, no trash bags, no soaps of any kinds (dishwasher, hand soaps, detergent), absolutely nothing…. Overall cleanliness was also lacking, dust throughout the apartment among other things. Windows were open when we got there which brought in 20+ big black flies so we couldn’t open the windows during our stay. One of the showers had a terrible mildew smell and the other has a sliding glass that is about to fall off. Like another review stated, the sink in the bathroom is detached and there is a MOUSE in the apartment. During our stay, the house was broken into and our stuff was thrown everywhere. The owner did an amazing job responding and taking care of us after this incident, just surprised it happened since the main door to get into the building requires a passcode. Overall if the upkeep was better and basic supplies were provided, this would be a fantastic place to stay since it’s location is within walking distance to many tourist areas.

You'll be lucky if you can get in to this property! The location was truly fabulous (walkable to Louve, Musee D'orsay, Sainte Chapelle, Cluny, with 2 nearby metro lines to get us everywhere else.) The home has clearly been thoughtfully updated and, while different from western standards, contains all the charm that a Parisian apartment has to offer. (Of note, there is no air conditioning.) Very close to grocery as well! The neighborhood is cute and hip and feels safe.

Pros: The appartement is in a great location within less than a 10-20 min walk of most of Paris typical tourist monuments (Sainte Chapelle, Notre Dame, Le Louvre, multiple Jardins, musée d’Orsay etc…). You’ll likely want to take the subway for the Tour Eiffel and Arc de Triomphe. Tons of restaurants and a few options for grocery shopping in the area, pastry shops etc… The host answered questions through the VRBO app within a day. Cons: The flip side of being in such a busy and accessible area is noise. During the summer, you will want to have the windows open at night to stay cool. The apartment is 20 meters from a main 4-lane street and between two mostly pedestrian narrow streets that amplify all the noise from vehicles and noisy tourists until very late at night to early mornings. If you are a light sleeper and need a super quiet environment to sleep, you may want to consider an alternate location. We were OK and I wouldn’t have a problem renting this apartment again. Room for improvement: when travelling, I do appreciate when I do not have to shop for toilet paper, trash bags, laundry detergent etc… there is very little cost to having the rental stocked with enough of these small necessities to last for a week and that is a gesture that I do really appreciate. In our case, we had one trash bag, 2 toilet paper rolls that lasted us a day and a half (5 people) and we had to buy everything else in quantities that way exceeded our needs. Overall, 4 stars for us

We spent a week here ahead of the Tour de France finish in July. The location was great with two Metro stations close by (one is literally across the street). There are lots of cafes and other places to eat within a short walk. The Mabillion (~50 ft away) is open 24 hrs/day so we did not even have to worry about timing. We had a couple of good meals there and tried several others in the area as well. As other reviewers point out there are lots of steps, but we were aware of this and it was not a problem. If you have mobility issues it may be a concern. The only thing we couldn't figure out is how to keep the light in the stairwell on long enough (it is on a timer) to make our way to the top before being plunged into darkness. Also, we couldn't figure out how to turn the light on at the top of the stairs if we were making our way down to go out once it was dark. Also, one roll of toilet paper with no spare just added an extra ounce of worry and one more trip to the store. If this is a cost issue for the host, then just raise the rate. If this is an issue of the VRBO community for taking anything not nailed down, then shame on us. Our overall experience was great and a I mentioned the location was ideal for us. We would definitely consider it for a return trip.

The apartment is located in a fantastic location, for this fact alone I would stay here again. I loved the proximity to restaurants, shops, multiple metro stations, and easy walkability to the Seine River area. The apartment was very clean when we arrived. We would have liked a few more towels, we didn't see any in the kitchen area, and toilet paper was limited. Either bring a roll or be prepared to buy some. The stairs weren't too bad, but bringing up large suitcases was a bit of a pain so pack light! The neighborhood does have a lot of activity at night so if you are sensitive to noises while sleeping bring earplugs, I am not usually an earplug person but I needed them and once they were in it was fine. For some reason I didn't get an email with check in instructions and I couldn't find any information in the VRBO app but once I called the property manager she texted me the check-in instructions.

6.0 / 10.0

The location couldn't be better. Easy access by Metro to anywhere in the city. 61 steps up to the apartment door! Mouse on the premises. One roll of toilet paper for the whole week.

Excellent location. In Paris, very close walking distance to cafes, bakeries, restaurants, museums, Notre Dame, St. Chappell, metro stops. Recommend more & better furniture for sitting in the living room.

For a family of five, this suited our needs. It is conveniently located in the heart of Paris.

Everything you need is close by -great cafes, grocery store, metro stops, and walking distance to tourist sites. There are a lot of stairs to the third floor but it’s location makes up for it.

I was on a trip with some friends and this was a perfect stay for us. The location was amazing and walking distance to many shops, restaurants, metro, sights, museums. One thing to note: the apartment was on the 3rd floor with no elevator. This was no problem for us but should be noted as it was a surprise!

The apartment is in a wonderful location and provided us a perfect home away from home. The stairs should be considered for any guests with mobility limitations, but they did not pose any issue for us. Isabelle was a great host and was quick to respond to our questions. All in all we highly recommend this property when you are visiting Paris. Thank you for hosting us!

First the good: Location is outstanding. Literally steps to main attractions including the Louvre, Notre Dame, and even the Eiffel Tower is a pleasant walk. You'll find two cafes at your feet, along with a pharmacy, bank, and anything else you'd want or need. The apartment is comfortable, nice spacious showers, good hot and cold water, comfortable beds. The WiFi was good. There are two showers (one in each bedroom which is odd, but functional). Each bedroom has it's own sink basin. There is only one toilet in a separate closet-like space with a very small sink as you enter the apartment. It's small but adequate. The wall mounted heating units double as towel warmers which is a nice touch. The not-so-good: 64 steps to get to the apartment and they're steep, plus another 12 up the spiral staircase once inside. It was fine for us but anyone with any health or mobility issues should consider this carefully. The unit is above two cafes and on the first night there was very loud chatter from below until after 3 am. We downloaded a white noise app which saved the day. Not all nights were as bad but the weekends do get loud. The washer/dryer broke on us and the owner did come and get it fixed but it was essentially unusable for us. There are limited supplies. A half roll of TP, very little dish soap. The towels were worn. The comforter was dirty but the owner quickly replaced (thank you!). There is a coffee maker but not a single coffee cup. Plenty of other dishware however. Frig is small but adequate. There is a 2-3" step off outside the toilet room and between the bedrooms which is annoying as we tripped on it multiple times. A wooden wedge could easily be made to avoid this hazard. We would be happy to stay again as the location, overall comfort and price outweigh the negatives.

The apartment was lovely and in such a great location to get out to see Paris.

The flat was very nice and just right for the three of us. The only difficulty we had, as a 75 year old couple, was climbing four flights of stairs every day. I do not recall if this was pointed out in the listing. It was a good thing that our grandson accompanied us on our trip. To remedy this stair climbing dilemma, we decided to just have one outing a day, go out in the morning and come back in the evening. All in all, the accommodations were lovely and we had a great trip to Paris.

Arriving at this flat was an awesome beginning for our visit to Paris. Located in the Saint Germaine des Prés area, an excellent area a short walk to the Seine, the Tuileries, the Louvre, Notre Dame and the famous Les Deux Magots cafe and Paul, a wonderful boulangerie. The apartment is very clean and comfortable with all of the necessary amenities and just as described. Isabelle was very helpful and gave detailed instructions for checking in and responded quickly when we called her. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay...Merci Isabelle.

Gorgeous place in St. Germaine Des Pres. Close to 2 metro stations. Lots of restaurants nearby which does contribute to late night noise. Owner was not quick to respond to messages prior to visit. sent 4 messages over a few months and it took messaging several days in a row to get a response 1 week before arrival. Overall place and location was beautiful and she was quick to return damage deposit.

It was a tight fit for a family of five, but we thoroughly enjoyed our week in this clean, elegant apartment in the Saint-Germain-des-Pres area. Although the building itself appears to be quite old, the apartment itself had modern conveniences and was quite comfortable, despite the historic heat wave that struck Paris during our stay. There are numerous boulangeries, restaurants, bars, grocery stores, pharmacies, and an overwhelming variety of museums and shopping venues within easy walking distance.

Overall, we had a lovely stay in this apartment. The great location, proximity to restaurants, supermarkets and the metro made for a fabulous stay. The apartment is laid out over two storeys which was also beneficial for our family of four. However, one of a couple of issues with this accommodation was arriving to find the only towels in the apartment wet, stained and hanging out to dry in the middle of the living area. They, along with the bedding, are in desperate need of upgrading. The other issue we had related to the poor quality of the kitchen. The base/kickboards are not joined and as such mice were often seen scurrying around the upper level. This is a four star apartment in a five star location.

Beautiful apartment in St. Germaine, our favorite part of Paris. Incredible location! Apartment is stylish and well appointed. Two stories; two bedrooms on lower level - each with a shower; pull-out couch upstairs; kitchen, washer/dryer combo, and living/dining area are upstairs. Owner communicated very well with us and was extremely nice. No AC but catches breezes nicely.
