Alexandre's place close to Place de la Nation is ideal for a Paris trip. There are several metro lines leaving in all directions from Nation, the nearest metro station, giving you a lot of flexibility where to go in the city. Also, the neighbourhood is very authentic with many bars, bistros, and restaurants and is not touristic at all, which I found comforting and relaxing after a long day of sightseeing with lots of other tourists.
The apartment is clean, has a nice balcony, and offers all amenities you need for spending a couple of days in Paris. Alexandre is also very helpful and friendly. Considering also the great price on offer, I can definitely recommend his place.
