Commerce and Crêpes

A skylit marble bathroom and a dining room painted with bold geometric murals give this 15th arrondissement apartment real personality – far from the generic pied-à-terre. The living space is retro and characterful, with a kitchen set up for proper home cooking when you'd rather eat in. Outside, the 15th is well connected – Commerce station is a one-minute walk away, and the Eiffel Tower is a twenty-five-minute stroll for when the sightseeing mood takes you.

Home truths:
* This home is only available to those studying or travelling for work – you’ll need to provide proof from your university or employer.
* The apartment is on the fourth floor and there is no lift in the building, so you'll be climbing the stairs with your luggage on arrival and departure – and every time you come and go.
* Air conditioning is only available in the living room, so the bedroom may feel warm during summer nights.
* If you're travelling with a baby, your host can provide a cot. It's worth requesting this in advance to make sure it's ready on arrival.
* As is common in France, the toilet is separate from the bathroom.
* Well-behaved pets are welcome to accompany you during your stay for no additional charge.
