Alain's place is in an incredible location, with several buses located within a 5 min walk and a metro station a ~10-12 min walk away. There are many great eateries around, and the mountain is really nearby. I found the host to be extremely responsive to texts. He also allowed us to store our bags in the apartment after checkout for a few hours before we left for our flight, which I really appreciated! One thing to note is that the bathroom door was essentially broken and barely closed, and the door handle is screwed in very loosely. This didn't pose a serious problem for me but would be an issue with more than 2 guests in the apartment.
