This is the second consecutive year we have stayed at 9 Rue Ferou. We love it for its wonderful location and its interior charm. But, the second time around does reveal, or make evident a few minor areas of concern. The most important is bathtub/shower safety. The bathtub floor can be very slippery. I think that some friction strips or a tub pad would make all the difference. Our second concern, though minor, is that this apartment has a small galley kitchen. This is no deal killer by any means. But, be aware that though fairly well equipped, including dishwasher, there is not much room for entertaining We had guests over for brunch one Sunday, but if you are thinking of a larger dinner party, think again. As I say, this is fairly minor; I am just making note of it. Finally, as charming as the courtyard is, the portico ceiling bulb just as one enters through the locked front street door was burned out for our entire stay, despite a request that it be replaced. If neighbors have no lights on when you return from a night out, the courtyard will be virtually pitch black. Despite this and the other minor concerns, this is a lovely setting to make a couple feel right at home, almost as Parisian residents.
