The location really could not have been any better. The place was clean and quiet. It was perfect for 3 people, and would probably be ideal for 2. My brother-in-law, who has knee issues, had a bit of a hard time with the stairs, but it was only one flight and it was nice not to be on the ground floor. There were always cabs on Place Joffre and it was an easy walk Rue Cler (which is a charming street with restaurants and shops on the other side of the Eiffel Tower). It felt safe and secure and check in was easy. We gave the cleaning person $40 as instructed and although I spoke little French and she spoke little English, she was go kind and showed us around the apartment and how things worked. I would absolutely recommend this place.
