Alphonse's small apartment was wonderful! Excellent location: 5 minutes from the Pantheon, 15 minutes from Notre Dame, and 2 minutes away from the Jussieu metro stop. There were markets a few steps away for groceries and supplies. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. I would definitely stay here again for my next trip to Paris!
The kitchen was well stocked (glasses, plates, bowls, a fridge, small two-burner electric stove-top, and a few essential cooking items like olive oil, salt, etc.), and the small space was comfortable for our entire 10 day stay.
The only minor negatives were the bed (spring mattress was a little uncomfortable, but not terrible), and the shower draining very slowly. Alphonse already said she was going to fix the shower as soon as possible, so shouldn't be an issue in the future!
Alphonse was very prompt with messages, and was very flexible with our arrival and departure. Thanks!
