The location to this room is great HOWEVER please be advised that there is NO WIFI in the and that the room is on the 6th floor with small stairs that you must walk up. The host made it easy to bring in my luggage by allowing me to pass through her 3rd floor apartment (which has access to the elevator) but after that I still had 3 floors to go up with a heavy suitcase. There is only a toilet and small sink in the room which I believed to have been a maid's room a long time ago (considering Paris' history) The room has a fireplace/chimney place that was covered with some sort of plastic and cardboard which will make a noise if wind enters or in my case you'll have some pigeon/birds enter the fireplace and wake you up with their songs at 5am. I also noticed that the bookcases are extremely dusty so if you have allergies- keep away. Helene, however was really nice and accommodating. She tried to make sure everything was going well and that my stay was as comfortable as possible (You have to go back down to the 3rd floor in her apartment to shower fyi) Other than cleanliness and fear of small bugs/insects from the old carpeting and futon (there is no actual mattress) it's your normal standard place to crash nothing fancy.
