You’ll find this unfussy apartment tucked away in the vibrant 11th arrondissement. Inside, the bedroom faces a courtyard, so a quiet night’s sleep is guaranteed, and there’s a cinema room for relaxing in front of your favourite flick. If you’ll be staying as a group of four, two guests will be on the sofa bed in the living space, which we think it’s better suited for children. Keen to explore? The famous Place de la Bastille is a short bus ride away and the Louvre Museum is easily reached by metro.


Home truths:
*At capacity, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living space.
*As is common in France, the loo is separate from the bathroom.
*Home comforts are lacking here. We think it's best suited for a short break or as a base to use when travelling for work.
*Some guests felt the wi-fi was patchy – it's not the best home if you're hoping to catch up on work
*The layout is a tad narrow, which we think makes it a better fit for two people.
*Please note that the steps leading to the downstairs lounge lack a proper railing. They may not be suitable for young children or those who struggle with mobility.
