Great Value and Location

We stayed at the apartment for 11 nights over Christmas in 2011. The apartment is in a great location close to markets and the Metro and it was easy to get around. We found the apartment very comfortable with a good kitchen and terrace and was adequately appointed and spacious. We would recommend it to anyone planning a visit.

We stayed in this apartment for a week in December 2011. The location was fantastic, right near a Metro station and close to shops. The support from the owner was terrific; any questions or requests, the owner responded to quickly and effectively. The apartment is large for Paris - we were a family of five and there was plenty of room for everyone. The property was clean, but basic. Paris is expensive, particularly if you are travelling with five people, and this was good value.

We stayed at this apartment in October 2011 and found it comfortable, clean and well located. Between the Marais and the Bastille and in walking distance of many famous Paris icons. It is very quiet (for Paris Standards) and the owner was very helpful on arrival. Good place for a family or 4 adults.

We stayed here in April with our two sons, aged 10 and 7. Yes, the furniture's a bit shabby - but it was very comfortable. The bedrooms are at opposite ends of the apartment so there's plenty of privacy. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals - even a trolley to take to the markets. The free phone calls were definitely a bonus and Even include Australia on the free list. The location is outstanding. From the apartment, you can see the markets at Place Monge (3 times per week) as well as the metro station. The Rue Mouffetard is just a couple of blocks away and has an amazing range of restaurants, creperies, etc. The Jardin des Plantes is also a very short walk away and our boys enjoyed visiting the menagerie there. We certainly recommend this apartment to anyone looking for comfortable, family accommodation. Just one word of warning.....if arriving by metro and carrying a suitcase, there are a LOT of steps up to street level at Place Monge. We caught a taxi but did see a number of people struggling with the stairs.

This apartment was our spacious home for a week. Room to spread out, a washer/dryer and a dishwasher top the list of features. Each of our two teenagers had a bed--no sleeper couches required. The decor was a bit shabby--paint and furniture would really help. The metro is very very close. There are convenient restaurants, grocery stores, bakeries and more. I have recommended this apartment to my friends and family.

We enjoyed the location and spaciousness of this apartment. We thought that it could have been a little cleaner. The beds were a little uncomfortable and the pillows were totally flat squares. With a little more care in choice of linens, pillows etc. and a cleaner apartment, this place could have potential. The pub downstairs did get noisy. We were happy with the responsiveness of the owner and her contacts in Paris. We found the computer to be a great bonus including the free phone calls back home to family. The bakery on Place Monge and the cafes across the street were terrific.

2 weeks at 54 de la Clef

As advertised. Spacious, light, quiet, well equipped. Within 100 yards of a Metro station and a 3-times-a-week farmers' market. The immediate neighborhood is lackluster, but rue Mouffetard is a 5-minute walk away and the Metro line can get you almost anywhere in Paris with no more than one transfer. Julie is very responsive to requests. It is sparsely furnished and in need of refurbishing, but Julie says it will be refurbished in November 2010. Yes we would return and recommend it to our friends.

A Perfect Location

We were two friends and our teenage daughters travelling to Paris from Minnesota, USA. The apartment is situated in a quiet neighborhood with quick access to the markets, dining, pubs, bakeries and the metro just across the street. Just a two minute walk from the excitement of the Latin Quarter. The apartment is spacious with two bedrooms. One bedroom has two beds and the other opens up to the terrace. The toilet is separate from the bathroom which was very helpful with four women getting ready each morning. THe bathtub and seperate shower, two vanities, and cleanliness were appreciated. The kitchen was fully equipped with pretty white dishes and all the utensils you might need. Having a computer and phone was a nice touch as our cell phones from America did not work. Nice to be able to keep in touch with our families home in Minnesota. In the evening we were fortunate to have enough space to entertain my sister and her three boys who live nearby. Lots of room to seat 10 people in the spacious living/dining room for eating and conversing. When we ran out of food or wine it was a two minute trip to the nearby Italian market or grocer - whatever you desire is a stones throw away. The owner/contact person was extremely easy to work with, returned messages quickly and assisted with the coordination. The building is secure and the caretaker made it easy to gain access. I didn't need to contact them during our short stay but would have felt very comfortable calling if any needs did arise. We stumbled upon many exciting attractions in the neighborhood. One was an ancient Roman arena built in the 1st century. It is now a park and place for children to play soccer. I will certainly hope to stay at this perfect location again.

We were a group of 5, my husband, our 3 granddaughters (1 adult and 2 teenagers) and me. We found the apartment to be perfect for our needs. The bedroom down the hall was quiet and away from the living area so we could sleep while our granddaughters skyped their friends in the spacious living/dining area. Free wifi was definitely a plus. The second bedroom has a double bed and a single bed which accommodated the girls quite nicely. We prepared several meals in and found the kitchen to be well equipped. The location is terrific. Rue Mouffetard is just a short walk, and it has many small shops, including pastry shops and delicatessens that sell rotisserie chickens and other prepared foods. There are also two "supermarkets" along the Rue Mouffetard and a wonderful sandwich shop at the bottom of the hill, around the corner. Place Monge is less than a block away and has open markets several times a week as well as a Metro station and a bus stop. The apartment owner was very responsive to our questions and our needs. All-in-all a wonderful stay! We would rent this apartment again in a heartbeat!

We are a family of husband, wife, and two 9 year old children. It rained the 4 days we were in Paris in April...so to have an apt as an option rather than a small hotel room---it was heaven. Even with the rain, we all had enough space to avoid grumpiness. The children could play with Legos, cards, small cars, while stretched out on the living room floor, I could read sitting on a couch, my husband could use his laptop (wireless provided) at the dining table. A bedroom for adults (privacy), and 1 for children---children not on a fold out couch but on real beds. Not luxurious, but homey, lots of floor to ceiling windows, very bright even on rainy days. The kitchen was very updated, stocked with cookware, plates, etc. We could cook a dinner of pasta rather than spending $18/per plate! Each morning my husband walked a few blocks and we had fresh, hot croissants (this is what my children remember most). The metro is 2 blocks away, Notre Dame is easy 10 min walk, safe, pleasant area, find out where the local grocery store is, 4-5 blocks at the most, and buy some basics. Washer in the apt was great...we found a laundromat 2 blocks away and used the dryers there (due to the constant rain). Restaurant area just across the green is wonderful, we didn't find it until our last day, many small restaurants, and shops, pedestrian style. Very clean, photos completely accurate. Reliable contact with landlord if needed. Note: there was a bar/restaurant below us, which you can see on Google Maps. We never ONCE heard a peep from it---no noise problem, totally safe. It was actually a plus for us as I didn't have to worry about my children's footsteps disturbing someone below. Completely Wonderful experience ! Due to the location of the building on a side street, 2 blocks from the main street, it was so much quieter than when we have stayed on a main boulevard or large side street---windows are open and traffic & trash pick up had been a problem but here it was QUIET. Ideal location in every respect; neighborhood, metro, shops/safety.
