Avenue Sainte-Anne at a Glance
Avenue Sainte-Anne is a furnished student residence located at 92600 Asnières-sur-Seine, just north-west of central Paris. The property offers non-ensuite rooms, one-bedroom units, and branded independent house-style accommodation. Monthly prices range from €855 to €885 (indicative — confirm with the operator), with a minimum lease term of four months. The residence is marked as currently not available, so checking live availability with the operator is necessary before planning a move.
The building scores a Google rating of 3.6 out of 5 based on 143 reviews. Residents highlight the clean, well-maintained spaces and convenient location near a metro stop, shops, and a pharmacy. However, several reviewers report significant delays in deposit refunds, which is an important factor to consider.
Who This Residence Suits
Students or interns looking for a short-term stay (4 to 12 months) — The four-month minimum lease makes Avenue Sainte-Anne suitable for exchange semesters, internships, or temporary work placements in the Paris region. Mid-term flexibility is built in without requiring a full-year commitment.
People who want bills included — The tags show that bills are covered in the monthly rent. This simplifies budgeting, especially for those new to renting in France where utility accounts and internet contracts can be time-consuming to set up for short stays.
Those who value a furnished, move-in-ready room — All unit types come furnished, with large windows listed as a feature. This means less hassle sourcing furniture and more natural light, a benefit in the often compact Parisian housing stock.
Travelers or students who prioritize proximity to everyday amenities — The residence is a three-minute walk from a metro station, a supermarket, a pharmacy, and a fast-food outlet, according to one five-star review. This makes daily errands easy without needing to go all the way into central Paris for basics.
Budget-conscious tenants who still have a moderate spending capacity — At €855–€885 per month (indicative — confirm with the operator), the price is above the city-wide starting rate of €365, but it sits in a mid-range bracket for a furnished, all-inclusive property in the suburbs. It is not the cheapest option in Paris, but it offers a balance of convenience and included services.
Who Should Look Elsewhere
Tenants on a very tight budget — The cheapest student housing options in Paris start at around €365 per month. If your maximum rent is below €800, this residence will exceed your range. Look for shared flats or non-ensuite rooms in less central locations.
Anyone concerned about deposit refund speed and reliability — Several Google reviews describe serious delays. Tamar Kheladze writes: “I moved out of Room HQ 1709 (Asnières-sur-Seine) on January 6th. My move-out inspection was identical to my move-in (Zero damages). By French law, they had 1 month to refund my deposit. It is now MARCH. The finance team is non-responsive. Not only are they ghosting my refund requests, but their internal system is a mes” (the review cuts off but indicates an ongoing issue). Another reviewer “hello” states: “We have made an insurance deposit, which cannot be returned to us after 1.5 mon…”. If holding a large deposit (typically one month’s rent) for several months is unacceptable, you may want to research alternative properties with better-rated management.
Those who expect on-site management to be responsive — The combination of deposit complaints and a non-responsive finance team suggests that administrative support may be stretched thin. For urgent maintenance or contract questions, this could be a frustration.
Long-term residents seeking stability — With a four-month minimum, the residence works for short stays, but if you plan to stay two years or more, the uncertainty around deposit return and possible contract renewal friction might outweigh the convenience.
What Residents Say
Three Google reviews are available, and they reveal a clear split between satisfaction with the physical space and dissatisfaction with financial processes.
Positive experience (5 stars) — maja rajevac
“I recently stayed at the Twenty Campus Asnières Sur Seine( 7 days) and had an excellent experience. The space was impeccably clean and well-maintained, ensuring a truly comfortable stay. The location is fantastic—just a three-minute walk to the metro, McDonald’s, a pharmacy, and a grocery store, making it easy to get a”
This review confirms that the living conditions — cleanliness, maintenance, and location — meet a high standard. For a short stay of one week, the experience was positive.
Negative experience (1 star) — Tamar Kheladze
The full text (as quoted above) describes a move-out in early January with zero damages, yet the deposit had not been returned by March. The reviewer notes this violates the one-month French legal timeframe for deposit refunds, and that the finance team is non-responsive.
Negative experience (1 star) — “hello”
“We stayed at the hotel for a week and were generally satisfied with everything. The room was clean, the usual normal breakfast, there is a laundry service for an additional fee. But unfortunately, we had to face a very unpleasant situation. We have made an insurance deposit, which cannot be returned to us after 1.5 mon”
This reviewer appears to have stayed in a hotel format, but the deposit issue is the same. Again, a satisfactory physical stay is overshadowed by a deposit that remains unreturned after 1.5 months.
Key takeaway from reviews: The property itself is clean, well-located, and comfortable. The recurring complaint is not about room quality but about the operator’s financial administration — specifically holding deposits beyond legal deadlines. A prospective resident should factor this risk into their decision, and perhaps plan to follow up aggressively if the deposit is not refunded within the statutory period.
Price Positioning and Room Types
The minimum price for student housing in Paris across the entire city dataset is €365 per month. Avenue Sainte-Anne’s range of €855–€885 (indicative — confirm with the operator) is roughly 2.4 times that baseline. However, this baseline likely includes shared flats and basic studios without all bills. Since Avenue Sainte-Anne includes utilities (electricity, water, internet likely) and provides furnished units with large windows, the premium is partly justified by the all-inclusive offer.
Room type guidance:
- Non-ensuite: Probably a single room in a shared apartment with communal bathroom and kitchen. This would be the most budget-friendly option within the price range, but still above the city’s bottom rate because of the furnished and bills-included package.
- 1b (one-bedroom): A self-contained apartment with a separate bedroom, private bathroom, and kitchenette. This type commands a higher price and is better for couples or individuals who want privacy.
- Branded independent house: Likely a unit managed under a specific brand, possibly a small house or studio block. It may share the same deposit-management issues as the other units.
Because the property is currently tagged as not available, it’s impossible to know which room types are offered at any given time. Always confirm the exact layout and whether the non-ensuite option is a shared or private bathroom.
Booking Timing and Availability
At the time of writing (data dated 2026-07), the residence is marked not available. This could mean all units are leased or the property is temporarily offline. If you are reading this review after that date, the situation may have changed.
Because the minimum lease is four months, the earliest move-in date will depend on when a unit becomes vacant. In Paris, student housing demand peaks in August–October for the academic year and again in January–February for semester exchanges. If you wish to secure a spot, you should inquire about reopening dates at least three to four months in advance. The price is indicative — confirm with the operator before any payment.
Given the deposit concerns raised by multiple reviewers, consider negotiating a clear deposit return timeline in the contract, and document the move-in condition thoroughly with photos. French law caps deposits at one month’s rent and requires return within one month of move-out (or two months if there are damages). If the operator fails to meet this, you have legal recourse via the local conciliation commission, but it can be slow.
FAQ
H3: Is the deposit refund a common issue at Avenue Sainte-Anne?
Based on the available Google reviews, deposit delays appear to be a recurring problem. Two out of three reviewers explicitly mention difficulties getting their deposit back within a reasonable timeframe. Tamar Kheladze reports waiting two months beyond the legal deadline. The operator’s finance team is described as non-responsive. While a 3.6 rating suggests many tenants are satisfied, the number of negative reviews focusing on deposits indicates that this is a real risk. Ensure you have a written contract with a clear refund clause and consider using a deposit insurance or guarantee scheme if available.
H3: What is included in the monthly price?
The residence tags include “bills_included” and “furnished”. This typically covers electricity, water, heating, and internet, along with basic furniture such as a bed, desk, chair, wardrobe, and possibly a small kitchenette. Large windows are a noted feature. Breakfast and laundry are not included; one review mentions a laundry service for an additional fee. Always request a full breakdown of what is covered before signing, and confirm whether the price for non-ensuite units also covers shared utilities.
H3: How far is the residence from major Paris universities?
Avenue Sainte-Anne is located in Asnières-sur-Seine, about 7–8 km north-west of central Paris. By metro, travel time to the city centre (e.g., Châtelet or Odéon) is around 20–30 minutes. Several universities operate in the Paris area, including institutions near the Latin Quarter and the 5th arrondissement. The closest metro station (within a three-minute walk) gives access to Line 13, which runs through La Défense, Saint-Lazare, and connects to other lines. For students attending campuses in the west or north-west of Paris, this location is convenient. For those studying in the south or east, expect a longer commute. No specific university names are listed here per editorial guidelines, but it is suitable for students at most Parisian institutions.
