Good location on a budget
Just three stops on the bus or a short walk from La Defense Metro, Puteaux is a clean, modern and green district. The top floor apartment is accessible by a small lift and there are great views from the balconies. The road is a bit noisy and currently there is some building work but the windows are double glazed. The apartment itself is modern but minimal. Only a few clothes hangers, no coat hooks etc. The kitchen is a good size but limited countertop space and not suitable for cooking full meals. The oven doesn't work well and although there are plenty of pans, they are not all suitable for use on the induction hob. However, there is a kettle, toaster and microwave. Everything needed a good wash before use and although there is a dishwasher, there were no tablets, washing liquid or tea towels but there is a local store just round the corner where we bought these. There are two bathrooms but if you want a bath, bring a universal plug and also note there is no hook for the showerhead attachment in the second bathroom. We couldn't work out the heating but there are fans that can be used in the bedrooms and with the shutters down we could leave the windows open. There are also oil filled radiators provided for when it is a cold. The cleanliness isn't great and the beds desperately need replacing (one broken, all a bit squeaky) but for a short trip to visit Paris it was fine. In summary, a good location, but a bit basic and needs some TLC.
