The apartment was small but clean and enough space for a solo traveller. It was extremely convenient as it is right next to both the Metro and RER lines, which I used repeatedly to get around. There's a grocery store and mall less than ten minutes away, a nice boulangerie, pharmacy and a few affordable neighbourhood restaurants. Marco himself was gracious and communicative, as was his sister Claudia who met me to give me the keys and introduce the apartment. Great value in an expensive city :)
