Alessandra's place is a stone throw away from the metro station which is very well connected to major tourist sights and museums. It is located in a safe neighbourhood and has lift access to the sixth floor which we were quite thankful for! The unit is homely and comfortable, with fast wifi speed and great hot showers. However, the drainage system is a little bit slow and the bath area feels a little bit clogged up at times. Communication was great with Alessandra and although we didn't get to meet her, her friend very kindly passed us the key at the bus station. Check in was smooth as he explained very carefully where everything was, and even showed us the way to her place. If you want a comfortable and relatively affordable place to stay in Paris, Alessandra's place is highly recommended.
