Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
The location of this pocket-sized apartment does all the talking. Just a short stroll from the pretty Jardin des Plantes, you'll be based in one of the city's oldest (and coolest) arrondissements. The Sorbonne is nearby, so you'll never be too far from a trendy cafe or late-night bar popular with its students. Metro stations are also within walking distance when you fancy venturing further afield. The apartment is small but has all the essentials, making it a fuss-free option for those keen to explore. Just note that it's on the third floor and the building lacks a lift.

Home truths
At full capacity, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the living room. We think space will feel tight with it in use, so we'd recommend a maximum guest count of two.

This apartment is on the third floor of a building without a lift. It won't suit those who struggle with stairs.
There isn't a dining table here, so you'll have to eat meals on the sofa.
The communal areas of this building, such as the staircase and entrance, might appear a little worn and dated in parts.
