This is a perfect location in the city. Walking distance to the metro and all sightseeing places. The Eiffel Tower is just a five minute walk away. The arc de triomphe is about a ten minute walk as well. The host was very considerate of our arrival time and was flexible accommodating us with that. There is a washer inside but no dryer. There is a laundry mat close by though if needed. Smoking is also allowed in the apartment, being that every time we returned the apartment smelled like smoke. There were also guests over when we returned, although they shut the door in the common area it still made it a bit uncomfortable to be able to shower. Over all this is a great place to stay to be able to sleep or walk back and take a nap if you need. This made our trip very easy and convenient to get around the city.
