Liked: Locations was great and the Ledru Rollin metro station was literally 2 minutes away. Along with the supermarkets and the golden arch of course.

Disliked: Our first appt (before we had to move because of a leak) was very VERY small. We were totally surprised at the extent of the 'smallness'. however we did cope but we weren't in the appt an awful lot.

Liked: Had a great time in this apartment. Walking distance to Bastille and Ledru Rollin stations meant it was really easy to get around and see the city. This is our second time in Paris and we really enjoyed this apartment. The kitchen facilities were great and it made saving a few pennies easy as we could cook all of our own meals if we wanted to with food from the supermarket just down the road! The apartment was really clean and comfortable and Joey who met us on the day of arrival was really friendly and helpful. All of the information we recieved from the owner prior to arriving was also really helpful and made finding the apartment a piece of cake! Would recommend this to others and would definately stay here again.

Disliked: Gemma left no negative feedback.

Liked: Everything about this apartment and service was great! The owner and keeper of keys were polite and understanding and willing to discuss if something didn't go according to plan. The rooms are clean and comfortable, not excessively tiny. Also, the building's pretty quiet. The place is well located with at least three Metro stations a block away, Bastille at walking distance, as well as several convenience stores for your meals. Also, the bathroom is clean and in good condition, not to mention that you have your own washing machine, a pretty decent stove and internet included. This is a real good deal and I am definitely recommending this place to others and keeping it in mind for when I have the chance to visit Paris again! 5/5!

Disliked: One day we did find one roach close to the kitchen, but in all honesty the place is pretty clean so it must have come from the sink. Also, sometimes we had to struggle a bit with the building's door because at times it wouldn't unlock after we used the electronic key but that's mostly it. Nothing too terrible.

Liked: The flat is nice and pratical. There is a subway stop there. You have all it is necessary to cook there (cutlery, pans, plates, cups, glasses, and so one). It's good for two persons. You have a PC only for you with access internet. They provide you a hairdryer, towels and bed sheets.

Disliked: You have to up six floors without lift. I can't access the wifi, but there was a PC that you can use in the flat.

Liked: This studio apartment was the perfect accommodation for our trip. It was really nice to have free Internet access, basic cooking facilities and a small fridge. If you prefer fancy hotels with lots of services, this is probably not for you, but if you're an independent traveler on a budget, this is perfect.

Disliked: The bed could have been more comfortable (it was a folded-down futon). Climbing up six flights of stairs every night was tough, true, but not a deal-breaker for us.

Liked: The location was great! Close to the Bastille with all it's restaurants and colour and the hop on / hop off bus. Also close to a the metro station which had good connections across Paris. Free internet connection and laptop as well.

Disliked: SMALL SMALL SMALL SMALL! The ROOM was small and it was a STUDIO which wasn't clearly communicated! It was a studio apartment and our beds were fold out lounges. It said for three but it was actaully a double fold out lounge and a single fold out lounge. The photos are deceptive as it's really small! That said the location was great and if you're only sleeping there then it was perfect.

Liked: It's small T1 apartment with all the major facilities like wi-fi, cooking, cleaning, washing machine etc........ its Excellent for 2 people, good with 3 people, okay for 4 people...... market and metro station is just within 2 mins walking distance.

Disliked: No elevator...... also bit away from main city centre, but journey to city centre is quick as the property is located nearby a metro station. The main door key is not functioning well sometimes...... Be careful... you have to reach to the apartment before 12 o clock in the night, otherwise they charge you at least extra 15 euro.......

Liked: It was a very nice appartment to stay in and very local. It has everything that you need,

Disliked: Please update the cutlery in the kitchen. E.g. there were only two knives for four persons which made it difficult to eat together. A new frying pan would be great as the other one is broken. And the sleeping cauch in the kithchen/living room is almost broken in the madras. Otherwise everything was okay

Liked: Great location, very friendly welcome, Joey was very helpful and flexible with our check in / out times. Laptop in our apartment was so useful, the shower was very good and beds were a good size. Small studio on sixth floor was still a good size for three teenagers to sleep in for a week, brilliant place to act as a base for our week in Paris :D

Disliked: Nothing - we even made a game out of the 100+ stairs we had to climb to get to our apartment, it was fun!
