My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Alex’s place. A perfect place to come home to after a full day of sightseeing. It was clean and comfortable, and in a great location. It’s walking distance to the train station and any number of eateries (the sushi place right outside the front door was delicious and super convenient!), bars, grocery, and yes, the Pompidou museum of modern art. And, of course, the beautiful river Seine is also just a short walk away too. Add to that, the location is lively and colorful, but it never seemed to an issue as far as noise. I’ve stayed in the city before, and was really unhappy with the place I chose, but not this time. I would definitely stay again at Alex’s place, not if, but WHEN I go back! It is perfect for 2 people, as there is only 1 bed - a double. The only downside is that it is up 4 flights of stairs. If you have knee issues, or other ailment, consider a place with a lift/elevator. I would have given 5 stars for the amenities, but there is no a/c in the bedroom. There are a couple of fans, so I was able to move the air around. I will not lie, the bedroom was hot! We happen to be there during a major heat wave so it was brutal, but at least we had the a/c in the other room and it worked well. Thanks Alex!
