Location: (5/5) |The proximity to the Eiffel Tower is truly unparalleled—literally steps away, allowing you to capture stunning photos at any hour (yes, your phone will overflow with Tower shots!). The tree-lined street is picturesque and surprisingly quiet for such a central spot, blending residential serenity with tourist access. Public transport is walkable, with diverse restaurants/cafes round the corner the neighborhood, making daily exploration effortless.||Building: (4.5/5)|The historical architecture exudes classic Parisian elegance: ornate balconies, wrought-iron details, and flower boxes create a postcard-perfect facade. You would literally feel like living in a movie set.||The Apartment: (3.5/5) ||Balcony views of the Eiffel Tower (especially at night) are the highlight. The apartment is spacious with high ceilings, separate living areas and functional kitchen with dishwasher, washer and dryer. ||However, the furniture/kitchen cabinets felt tired. The floor showed visible wear. The floor squeaking disrupted our stay—every step echoed, exacerbated by thin walls and ceilings.||The cleanliness was generally acceptable but inconsistent—surfaces were dust-free, but corners hinted at rushed cleaning. Bathrooms were tidy but lacked luxury touches. |||Service: (3/5)|Despite a pre-arrival survey promising personalized attention, we received zero tailored recommendations. Staff were polite during check-in but transactional. Basic kitchen supplies (tea, coffee, dishwasher tablets, etc.) are only provided once upon arrival. There was no daily replenishment or easy way to request more without extra charge. Particularly, only 6 coffee capsules were provided for the entire stay, regardless of length. Guests staying longer need to factor in sourcing these essentials themselves.||Overall: (7/10)|Résidence Charles Floquet delivers magic through its views and location. However, aging infrastructure and inconveniently limited kitchen supplies undermine its luxury aspirations and practicality for extended stays.
