The staff was always friendly and helpful. We traveled during the first half of April. At first, our room was hot and stuffy, we could not get any airflow, even with the window and small ceiling vents being open. They gave us a small fan which we stationed near the open window at night and in the morning until we left for the day - this made it more comfortable. The nearest grocery store is a 10-15min walk. It was 9€ per person each day to utilize the bus & metro to get in/out of the city. With Residhome's great prices and nice facility, I felt we saved money and were still able to keep to our lower budget for this Paris trip.
