I stayed at Alex's place for 2 weeks in January. This was one of my favorite Airbnb's. It was a charming, older apartment. The kitchen was my favorite room. It was a delight to have breakfast there every morning. The location was very good. About 30 seconds walking from metro Filles du Calvaire-M8, and 4-5 minutes from Oberkampf. Notre Dame is about a 20-25 minute walk away. It took me a couple nights to find a comfortable sleeping spot on the sofa bed, but once I did, all was good, The apartment faces a courtyard and is very quiet. No street noise. I was a solo female traveler and felt safe staying in this apartment and neighborhood. Alex responded quickly to any questions I had, and Leti, who met me at the apartment , was friendly and took the time to show me how things worked in the apartment. Overall, a great Airbnb experience! Thanks, Alex and Leti!
