"Excellent place to stay. Yes, the “stairs” (elaborate ladder?) are a bit much to traverse up, but you’ll make it. I’ve been told that stairs (and Parisian apartments) like these are typical; not much you can do about it, so suck it up and haul your gear up. You want to rent an apartment and experience living like a Parisian? That’s what you’ll get with this place. Great bonus that they have a Nespresso machine! If you run out of coffee pods and need anything else, the Carrefour is literally down the stairs. The neighborhood is fantastic. Quiet, not a lot of tourists (I’m sure we were the only ones), and a cute neighborhood that can bustle like the rest. You can throw a stone and find great boulangeries, but we loved Pagnol down the street on the way to Jaurès Metro. With that, the Jaurès station is about 6 or 7 minute walk and can take you anywhere; Montmartre is about 20 minutes. We would stay here again."

"It’s hard to say something we “didn’t like”, but yea, the stairs are something, as well as the front door “foyer” is a bit tight as well. Again, not much can be done about that."
