Philippe’s place is well located and easy to find, close to a subway station and walkable distance from the major touristic points in Paris.
Philippe didn’t welcome us in person, but he left enough instructions so we could get in by ourselves.
Keep in mind that his apartment is on the top floor of an old building, with lots of wooden stairs that you must climb, so if you’re carrying too much or heavy luggage, or if you have problems walking, then you should reconsider. For us it wasn’t an issue.
The only things I’d point out is that the sheets should’ve been cleaner and the cleaning products in the kitchen and bathroom should be better.
It wasn’t a cheap stay and the sheets showed clear signs of excess of use. Also, the kitchen sponge was dirty and we had to buy another. Detergent and liquid soap were not of good quality as well.
