Sweett | Tardieu I - Two Bedroom Apartment, Sleeps 6

Recently completed a fantastic stay in this apartment. In a busy neighborhood just steps from the Funicular, the apartment is clean and very comfortable. Short walk to two metro stations, lots of dining and shopping options very close by. Air conditioned, which was a savior during our stay. Comfortably housed our family of four. In suite washing machine was great. Lots of stairs in the apartment, so anyone with toddlers or that have issues with stairs should be aware, but for us that was a non-issue. Only negative would be very slow internet. Would not hesitate to book again!

Nestled in the heart of Montmartre, the property was charmingly perfect! The check-in/check-out process was seamless. Our family of 5 enjoyed the access to the lively neighborhood while still providing a surprisingly quiet and private place to rest our heads. We would definitely come back!

We found the apartment exactly as pictured and described. The location was very convenient with many restaurants, cafes, grocery stores, and shops just steps away. In addition, two nearby metro stops allowed our family easy travel throughout Paris. The host organization, known as ‘Sweet Inn’, was responsive, and helpful and we felt safe as the result of three electronic key-coded gates. Passwords were submitted to us via email and through WhatsApp. Private courtyard for morning coffee, bird heard singing from open windows, clean and accessible. Highly recommended.

The apartment was perfect for our family with two 16-year olds as they had their own space. It's clean, modern, with a spacious top floor. I have a slight hip problem, so negotiating the stairs was tricky and for that reason, I wouldn't recommend people with major mobility issues stay there. The other potential problem is that the apartment has digital access. Four codes are sent to you 15 minutes before check-in; these provide access to the street door, two gates and the apartment door. Hence the apartment is very secure and as long as the inhabitants of the neighboring apartments are co-operative (ours were), then it's also quiet. That said, I can understand how some people (perhaps especially older people and those who want to escape their appliances for a while), may find this reliance on digital access irritating and unnecessarily convoluted. Rue Tardieu itself is in the epi-centre of tourism, so souvenir and fast-food shops abound, but on the plus side, the funiculaire is directly opposite the apartment, so you can easily access higher areas, and the view of the Sacre Coeur from the street is beautiful. Down the hill (south Pigalle) is more interesting and less touristy the further down you go. Rue des Martyrs, after you cross Boulevard Barbes Rochouart, is gorgeous, with a variety of specialty French shops, cafes and restaurants and a cute square with a merry-go-round, trees and a brilliant bookshop selling old and new books from every continent. My suggestion is to go with at least a little French language under your belt. We all speak some French and always found people very friendly, but we witnessed many tourists beginning interactions with locals in rapid-fire English and without a "bonjour", who were understandably met with annoyance.
