Despite the unrest in Paris during our stay, we were lucky to have spent 4 days in Valentin's Guesthouse. The area is big and the furniture is simply stylishly modern. We used the sofa bed and the mattress was satisfactory. There is a lift in the building! We enjoyed our peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis. It is only around 20-30 minutes walk to the Eiffel Tower with a lot of shops and restaurants along the way. We had to book 2 days of the hop-on hop-off to be able to get from A to B, but thought it was not worth it. We definitely will be coming back.
