My girlfriend and I Was looking for a place with great location in central Paris, and Alan’s place certainly fit that description. It’s minutes away from Champs-Élysées (and the Arch de Triomphe) in a relatively quiet parallel street. Within 5 minutes walk you will find all you need: supermarket, pharmacy, small convenience store, taxi stand, paid parking, and two French Brasseries. The apartment is modern with smart solutions as the place is very compact. The apartment is fitted with a digital lock so you can use your smartphone as a key. The host is very accommodating and with great communication skills (responded to all queries within 30 minutes), and has a detailed guide for check-in, checkout, house amenities, restaurants recommendations, house rules etc. that was shared prior to our stay.
A couple of things that it’s good to be aware of: as this place is very compact it’s best suited for a single travellers or couples that travel light. Since it’s an old building the sound isolation is so-so. Could easily hear the neighbours when they were home 😂. If you plan on cooking be aware that you only have access to basic/limited cooking equipment (one frying pan and a one pot) + some additional accessories (this was not a problem for us as we dined out every day). All in all I would definitely recommend Alan’s place, and he is a very nice and polite host.
