Our busy 9-day first trip exploring Paris was made even more special by being greeted by Isabelle and coming home to this spacious, light-filled, quiet and comfortable apartment. We desired a place that was out of the mainstream of busy central Paris, and Clichy is easy to get to on the Metro. Just a 15 minute walk from Mairie de Clichy metro, there are also buses you can take to the city. Within 25 minutes we were in Central Paris by metro. We had everything we needed for our stay, and appreciated the balconies with potted Spring flowers, the comfortable bed and the well supplied kitchen. We very much appreciated Isabelle's responsive communication on the days we were arriving and departing, and it was also so thoughtful and kind of her to leave us some snacks and cold drinks to enjoy. The chocolate bar was quite delicious! This apartment building is security locked, with entry using the key fob, and a traditional key for the 3rd floor apartment. This is not a 5 star hotel, so don't expect fluffy towels or bedding, but everything was clean and orderly, and it seemed to be a safe neighborhood, with some newer apartments nearby. Clichy has several restaurants, bakeries and beautiful parks, so we explored the area as we walked to and from the Arc de Triomphe and the neighborhoods around Paris.
