120% recommend Nico's house! It's better than the photo you see! Nico is very kind and very welcoming, he guided us to the store/shop/restaurant that you will need around the neighborhood. The Metro is at the corner just walk in a minute, but we choose to ride the bicycle to save the ticket fee cause the Velib station just in the next street.
This apartment is on the 2nd floor with an elevator, the mini elevator can ride 2 adults or 3 luggage. No need to move your luggage up and down the stairs anymore. The apartment is clean and lets us feel likes home. We play Nico's Jazz CD collection by his great audio equipment. Take a hot bath at night. Enjoy the Rose wine from Nico's entertained. The bed and the sheets are very clean and comfortable, we sleep very well. We would definitely back to Nico's house when we return to Paris!
