8/10
The good: Phenomenal neighborhood with great access to useful metro and bus lines. Really great Chinese food in the neighborhood as well! The bad: I was looking for a ground floor apartment - which this is because I was travelling with two women in their mid 70s, in spite of contacting the property manager about this, we were disappointed to find one of the bedrooms & bathrooms up a large 18” step. The other bathroom is up a narrow spiral staircase. Both bathrooms are Parisian small but both bathrooms are IN THE BEDROOMS and unless you’re under 5’6” you won’t be able to close the door to a toilet - so you’ll be staring at the bed while doing your business. Additionally, since it’s a ground floor apartment there are no rooms with any view aside from one bedroom. The walls / ceilings cake off old masonry particularly in the dungeonous basement. Finally, while this booking was through VRBO any contact you have to make with the property is done through a third party booking site (check my guest) this added a layer of complication when the key combination had been changed incorrectly prior to our arrival. We made it work, but our least favorite property in 2 weeks in France.
