Semaphore Reviews
Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: This apartment is beautiful, very Parisienne vibe and the location is perfect. You walk right out of the door into a fun, vibrant neighborhood with great shops and restaurants. You can walk to many popular destinations and are 1-3 blocks away from two very accessible Metro stations.
Negative: The facilities are great but you need to provide a lot of your own basics like dish soap, laundry soap, trash bags, etc. But easy to get at the grocery store a few doors down.

Positive:
Thank you for allowing us some flexibility with the entry time and for meeting to hand us over the key. It was a highly appreciated gesture. Also thank you for the free soap, dishwasher and rubish bags. Kitchen appliances were complete and in good working state, although some mugs and cutlery were dirty. There were enough towels and bed sheets for four and all well clean. Toilette and bathroom were also clean and with sufficient ventilation. Overall cleanliness was good.
Negative:
Even if the sofa opens as a bed, it was extremely uncomfortable to sleep in, perhaps our fault for not reading well the advertisement of a 'two bedroom' appartment. Moreover, the add did not say (or we did not realize) about the ramping stairs to climb into the appartment. In addition, the appartment has different floor levels to transit between rooms, so one must remain vigilant at all times to avoid falling.
Summary: Great appartment for a young couple; the rest will appreciate its centric location.

Positive:
Fantastic location with restaurants and shops at the door. Transport and sights only short walk away. Size of apartment very good for Paris and nice to have a kitchen. Modern feel but with character.
Negative:
The internal stairs from the front door into apartment are very steep so may not suit if any mobility issues or large luggage. Washing machine snagged my new clothes but the property management company responded quickly. Noisy outside but to be expected given central location.
Summary: Great location and good sized apartment
