Christelle's apartment was absolutely ideal for a solo, female traveler, who is pretty comfortable with navigating Paris. The space itself was precisely what I needed- charming, sweet, clean and it had perhaps the most comfortable sofabed I've ever slept on. I personally didn't make any use of the kitchen, but for those intending to do a little cooking, all the basic amenities are there. There is even a converter for guests to use in case they forget theirs, and if the apartment becomes too cool, the heater works perfectly.
Location- The closest metro is Franklin Roosevelt (line 1), though the city is so flat, you might want to walk everywhere. You really cannot go wrong with being right next to the Champs Elysees, especially if you are a fan of shopping at high -end shops and fine dining. At present, and for the past four months, there have been demonstrations on Saturdays, resulting in some damage of storefronts, banks, and the occasional use of tear gas by police on the protesters. But however angry the locals are with their present government (and make no mistake, the anger is justified) I was never mistreated or made to feel unsafe as an outsider. My advice, whether traveling to Paris or anywhere, is to use common sense and have the humility to remember that you are a guest in a foreign country.
Special thanks once again to Christelle and Ivana for helping me check in/out. I will for sure be back!
