Our stay at Alex's place was pleasant. The location is very good, close to Sacre Coeur and to 2 tube stations. The neighborhood was safe. Alex was happy for us to check in earlier than 3 pm and was prompt with answering to our texts. The flat is big but is not very clean and smells of cigarette smoke. In the bedroom and bathroom was dust on the furniture (the furniture is old fashioned and not very well kept) and it's quite noisy at night time. We weren't bothered about noise because we were very tired as walking all day long and reaching home late. 0verall it was ok but it could have been better in terms of cleanliness.
