Alice's spare room is a great place to stay in Paris. The room is comfortable and you can get from her home to just about anywhere in Paris in about 30 or 40 minutes tops thanks to being next to a transit line. She also offered coffee and bread to me in the mornings. The only miscommunication we had was that I didn't get notice about how to enter the apartment building, but it ended not being a big deal. Just make sure you have this info before you arrive :)
