Les Mansardes du Roi - À deux min du château - Centre historique

😊: Great location, lots of good restaurants for evening meals, very close to Palace. Just be aware 72 steps up narrow staircase to apartment..fine for us, but not for everyone! Apartment clean and quiet.. 😢: Unable to find extra bedding, it got a bit chilly.needed a douvet .also old bedding still in machine? Not sure why. Light kept coming on on stairway..may we suggest a blackout blind at kitchen window.

😊: I chose the apartment because of the location and it really was only a 15 minute walk to the palace. There is a huge selection of restaurants in the area and food market in the square at the back. Lovely patisseries close by for fresh breakfast croissant. It is a bedsit apartment, so it's small and functional with a good size shower; fine for close friends or relatives. Lovely roof top views for a very authentic French experience.. 😢: The apartment is in the roof so there are a lot of narrow stairs. I knew there would be a lot of stairs but I didn't appreciate it was a narrow spiral staircase all the way and one of our party found it quite difficult. There is a washing machine but we couldn't use it as it was full of the apartments laundry. When I booked, I mistakenly thought there was parking included but in fact there is just an underground car park close by. I was able to drop our bags close to the end of the road then leave the car underground for 48 hours at a cost of €50. This worked fine but is an extra cost to consider..

😊: It’s very cute. A mix of old feeling and modern. Bed is comfortable. It has everything you need for a short stay. Is well located - a few mins walk from Versailles palace & lots of bars & restaurants nearby. We spent a whole day touring the palace which was amazing. 😢: The spiral staircase is a killer - with your luggage and after each hard day of walking. I banged my head on the beams more than once. The place was clean but a bit odd in that the washing machine was full of laundry & there was a hoover in the wardrobe. We also struggled to find the property. Taxi driver didn’t know the road. It was bad luck that there was a thunder & lighting heavy rain storm as me arrived. Gaining entry was tricky as there are 2 staircases and we went (4 flights) up the wrong one. I found the message about checking out a bit rude too - as if it was expecting us to be late & leave dirty dishes. Also the listing shows a view of the palace - and that is not visible from the window so it’s a bit misleading..

😊: Central location and close to the palace and restaurants. 😢: Third bed was not made and dirty tissues were inside the rafters.

😊: The location was very central to wine bars and restaurants. A fairly quiet location. Within walking distance to transport locations and Versailles Palace.. 😢: The entrance was dark and then having to climb 72 steps with luggage up a narrow winding staircase to the property was very challenging. Of which there was no mention of this in the description. Found one bed made but however the sofa bed required sheets and we had to hunt around for them. The washer had previous clients bedding washed and left in so would have had to take out and dry had we wanted to use the machine. Only 2 bath towels of grey thready state no hand towel . A charge would be levelled for another towels during 3 night stay. We felt very unsafe as could not locate smoke detector or carbon monoxide detector or a fire escape. Could not get tv to work.No hand soap in toilet. Beware of the low beams knocked head a few times. Interestingly the guest comment book appeared to have had pages torn out. Due to all of this we are extremely surprised at some of the good reviews. We would not stay again..

😊: The communication with the host was very good! She was available and always nice to provide us with all the information!. 😢: I would suggest to instal air conditioning....it was a bit hot during the day. But we could sleep well at night....so not big deal!.

A plunge into history!<br>#128578; This was an incredible stay in the lap of history! My cousin and I, both architecture majors and lovers of old buildings, estimated this old house to be late 18th or early 19th century. Our top floor room was crisscrossed by hefty, hand hewn oak beams and joists (mind your noggin!) and well-appointed with modern furniture, under-counter fridge, dishwasher and washing machine. The neighborhood was marvelous, packed with cool shops and eateries. The crêperie next door was fantastic! The outdoor ...<br>#128577; I didn’t realize our room was on the top floor and I wasn’t expecting to lug my overpacked bag (that was my fault) up 74 steps. Also the entry method took some experimentation until we got it, and outside our efficiency apartment, we found TWO lockboxes instead of one, and spent several minutes fiddling with the real obvious but wrong one until we noticed the correct one laying on the windowsill nearby.
