Maxime's place was in a wonderful location and a very safe feeling building. The metro was maybe 2 minutes away and the Louvre was about 5 minutes. The location was pretty centralized from almost any major landmark or attraction which helps so much when you want to fit in multiple things in one day. It was very helpful to have a lift in the building and access to reliable internet and TV apps if you need a day indoors for any reason. I would definitely consider this place for your visit or long term stay in Paris!
