Franck’s place was exactly as described. The stairs are killer with your suitcases but otherwise if your in decent shape they’re not too bad while you’re going in and out. We loved how close to the metro we were - we took it nearly the entire time. The street does stay lively at night but we found it endearing and stopped in a new bar every night. It’s really a local spot - I don’t think we saw any other tourists on the block. Although there was a coffee maker and nespresso machine there was no coffee or pods but there is a great coffee shop just downstairs a few feet away so it wasn’t a big deal.
View of the Eiffel Tower was a nice touch!
