Axel is very accommodating- the place is clean - a little smaller than we anticipated, but not a big deal . We did not spend a lot of time there. Street is closed at night and you need a key to enter , so we felt completely safe the entire stay, no matter what time it was . Our plane arrived early and Axel allowed us to check in early . Lots of shops restaurants and bars within walking distance. We took the Hop On - Hop off vis tour and one of the stops is the Bastille Monument and its maybe 2 blocks from the apartment, so it worked out great! I would definitely recommend-and I would stay again - thank you Axel !
