There is a lot to like in this little row house. It is airconditioned, which remains rare in Paris-- that alone would be enough for gratitude during heat waves.Martine is a generous host; she is flexible with arrival & departure when possible, left welcoming treats, & had recommendations for the local bakeries, cafés, etc.; her neighbor checked us in & gave us a tour of the neighborhood. The house is beautifully decorated & equipped with thoughtful touches, washing machine, drying rack, bags for toting groceries, etc. Good bed & comfortable chairs. Kitchen is tight, but well-organized.If this is your first time in Paris, a more central location might be more atmospheric; otherwise, , this is well positioned, with a metro and bus connections to almost anywhere in the city. There is a good open-air market twice a week around the corner.The one caveat is the organization. It is on 3 stories; the main living area on the ground floor; the bedroom & only bathroom on the 1st floor (2nd American style) and a 3rd basement level room with a convertible sofa-bed. Getting to the toilet from the lower room requires negotiating 2 sets of steepish stairs & going past the bed of those sleeping upstairs. It is thus great for one person or a couple (as long as no one has mobility issues) & likely to work well for close friends/family, but not ideal for someone else who needs to get up a lot. But as long as you know that, it is a lovely place to stay!
