Good Value for a Good Location
What's best? The apartment is clean, safe, and comfortable. As you can see in the photos, the decor is pleasing (though a realtor's wide angle lens does make it look more spacious). The kitchen has everything needed if you want to cook a meal, and there's a Nespresso machine for your morning coffee (find instructions and tips online since nothing is provided by the manager). A Carrefour grocery store is very close, as are bakeries, coffee shops, and a wide range of restaurants. It's just about a block from Blvd Saint Germain, which means it's very close to a Metro station. The bathroom is spacious. The bedroom has excellent closet space and hangers, and the bed is good-sized and comfortable. Shortly before arrival, a video is sent to you showing you exactly how to gain access to the building and the apartment. If you don't watch it, you will regret it.What's less than great? A bar with live music and loud partying several doors down. The lock is old and unpredictable. There were times when I nearly called the managers because I could not get the door open. The lock needs to be changed, ideally to one that uses a code. The description says that the apartment is two flights up. That is technically true, but remember that two flights in Europe means three for Americans. There's no elevator, and the stairs are circular and very steep. The shower temperature is set to 40 degrees C (104F), but the water coming out is scalding hot. And finally, no air conditioning. Fans in closet.
