Emmanuel is a great host. Showed me every thing and how to use it. Left a bottle of wine also, which is always a great touch. The area is great. It's right in the center. It couldn't be a better location. I know Paris pretty well now and it the best location I have stayed in. The stairs are narrow but I got used to them. Emmanuel's friend carried my luggage up 5 flights of stairs. Emmanuel was also helpful with questions and where to go for any needs.
The bathroom is small but at least there is a small bathtub unlike many other places. The floor will get wet since there isn't a shower curtain. The hot water lasts the whole time and the water pressure is great. The Internet worked the whole time and he even has adapters for those who didn't bring any. All in all, it was a great experience and I would definitely stay there again!
