This studio was convenient but very dingy, well located in the 7th. The studio is inside a dreary although very clean inner courtyard of an old complex which has older bones, & sometimes there are bad sewer smells .The host was communicative and friendly. He was prompt and checked in with me prior to my arrival. Check in was smooth and I was informed of what was available on site. However, the studio was very bare bones. After reading the French language review, I thought to bring my own linens, but I didn't have enough room in my suitcase. You only get one bottom sheet and one duvet cover-no extras. This is no problem if you're around for a few days, but I was there for a month. The main room holds a double bed and a pull out couch plus a table & 2 chairs. I couldn't watch TV because it appears it's all pay per view. The bathroom is tiny. The shower measures 1 m2 and the sink is really a hand washing basin. You can't really brush your teeth in there because there's a shelf above the sink you'll hit your head. So would I go back? Well probably not. I came here on business and I needed a place to land. But I found the place incredibly depressing due to its worn furniture and dreary walls & curtains. Conclusion: If you're gone all day and most of the evening, this place is for you. There are many convenient bus lines nearby, as well as a taxi stand. There's also a good boulangerie and a minimarket. Bonne chance!
