When we have a few days available in the next 2 weeks, or receive a late cancellation, we would rather be MAKING SOMEBODY HAPPY by renting at a VERY LOW RATE than leaving the apartment unoccupied.
The studio is located on a charming square, the “Place Emile Goudeau". In 1920-40, our building was the furnished “hotel du Poirier” (Pear tree hotel). Many famous guests lived in (MODIGLIANI, Albert CAMUS, Max JACOB …). PICASSO and other artists lived across in the “BATEAU LAVOIR”.
The view of the studio embraces Paris roofs on the south. One can see “Notre Dame”, “Les invalides”, the Montparnasse tower, the “Museum of modern Art” in les Halles and many more sites.
As a bonus, Phone calls to land lines in France, and to US, Canada and australia are generaly free. It is also true for more than 50 countries. More over, calls to cell phones towards specific countries (often US & Canada) may also be free. Ask us for detail as it may vary with time and policies of operators.
On the left is the Abbesses district, on the right is the Old Montmartre village. The square is planted with big Spanish Oak trees. The area is very safe and calm.
We are in the same block as the fruit and vegetable stand featured in the famous movie "Le Destin d’Amélie Poulain.". The Abbesses subway station is 2 mn walk. Most interesting places in Paris may be reached in 15mn.
The studio was designed by my wife who is an architect. It has been entirely renovated in January 2006. It is 270 sq foot. It has a perfectly equiped kitchen, open by a bar on the studio. Located at the third floor, it is very bright and its 2 large windows let the sun in.
The furniture is typical, vintage wooden French furniture.
We are living on the fourth floor, just above. We are here if you need help, but do not worry, we will not be intrusive.
Just a point, important to us. We decided to rent the apartment on a short-term basis because customers are mainly foreigners. We enjoy meeting foreign people and believe this is a way to meet nice people as well as getting some return on the apartment. We want people to enjoy their stay as much as possible.
Here is one of the last mail we received from one of our guests:
Bonsoir Jean Noel, many thanks for the superb vacation primarily due to your lovely apartment and the spectacular location.
We really enjoyed the Montmartre experience and its lively street scene. Again thank you for your wonderful hospitality and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

The apartment is small, but with spectacular light, with direct sunlight and views over the city, it seems much larger. It is not fancy, but is clean and comfortable. It is in a wonderful Montmartre location, rue des Abbesses outside the tourist zones, and so provides a real taste of what that most wonderful quartier is like. Transportation (the 12 line) couldn't be more convenient. Rue des Abbesses is a great shopping street for food. (The kitchen is too small to do any serious cooking, but fine for heating things up, breakfasts, etc, and with the prepared foods so good and so nearby, it is not an issue.) It is very quiet. The owner, who is fluent in English, was immediately responsive to a minor technical glitch. I know Paris well and this part of Montmartre is a treat. Not recommended, however, for people for whom slopes or stairs is a problem. It is not severe, but should be considered.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers.

I spent a week here in October 2011. It is the perfect spot. In the centre of all Montmartre's charm and close to transportation...both bus and metro. The apartment is well equipped so that I was able to prepare all my breakfasts and diners with ease. And I could open the two very tall windows and gaze down upon Paris while I dined. I was lucky as the weather was warm enough to be able to keep the windows open both in the morning and in the evening. The flat was even better than the photos. And the washing machine alows you to both wash and dry. I didn't have enough dishes to bother with the dishwasher but there is one available. My hoast and his business partner were very helpful with any questions I had. At first I thought the WiFi was not working but it turne out to be a problem with my computer. I cannot wait to return. Next time I will stay for longer.

Perfect for 2. Pack light because you can do laundry! Save money because you have a full kitchen! This apartment is perfect! My Fiance & I stayed for 3 weeks! He proposed on top of the Eiffel Tower! Jean Noel our landlord even gave us a bottle of wine when he found out we were engaged. It became our home! We will be back!

Thank you so much for such perfect accomodations. Your building in Montmarte is a prize! We loved coming home to our studio after a long day of seeing the sites of Paris. Steps to Sacre Coeur, amazing views, and lovely music outside our window. Quite lovely. hope to return with the whole family next time. Currently missing the pastries outside my front door!

We stayed here in September for 9 nights. We found the description to be absolutely accurate. This is the most perfect location; finding our way to the apartment and obtaining the keys was very easy. Abbess metro is very close and there are also busses quite near. You're spoiled for choice of restaurants on Rue Abbess and Lepic & shops are handy for buying everything you'd need to cook lovely food in the apartment. The apartment itself is comfortable, has lovely natural light, it is well equipped, the shower is hot and efficient, wifi is fast, bed comfortable and cosy, everything was clean. Jean-Noel was very easy to deal with, our deposit was quickly refunded. We'd recommend the apartment to friends and would love to return. NB The patisserie at the foot of the square has the BEST croissants. Jan

Hello Jean Noel, I was wondering if there is a model number and a manufacturer stamp in the wonderful interior door lock of Padonou Apt. It was a very secure lock with the top & bottom metal locks. There have been a bunch of burglaries in our neighborhood & can not seem to find that specific door bolt/lock anywhere online. Please get back to me when you can. Our time in Padonou was magic. Love, Susan

My Fiance and I rented from Jean Noel in January of 2011. The neighborhood and apartment are wonderful. There is just the perfect amount of room for 2 people. Full kitchen so you don't have to eat out every meal. Plus a washer/dryer so you don't have to over pack. It's a quick walk to the Metro, stores and restaurants. The windows are huge and the apt. is full of light. The view of Paris is amazing! The bed serves as sleeping quarters and also sofa. The apt. is stocked with books and tourist guides to Paris. Upon hearing of our engagement Jean Noel left us a card and a bottle of wine. It was such a nice thing for him to do. We saw no crime and always felt safe. I would recommended this apartment to any single person or couple. We will definitely stay with Jean Noel in this or any other of his rentals again. The descriptions and photos are completely accurate!
