I really can't say enough praises about Philippe's place! For 11 days I huffed and puffed up the stairs each day (it never got easier) but absolutely forgot all my fatigue the second I opened the door to the room. The space is no frills, but the convenience of all the basics that you would need. And an unbeatable view that I felt lucky to wake up to every morning. During my trip, the metro was down because of strikes but the location of Philippe's place helped me reach every destination within 15 minutes of walking and I never had to use Uber/Taxi even once. Philippe is a great host who is easily reachable and prepared to assist very quickly. You won't regret this stay!
