Vladimir's place is great for a person on a budget in Paris who doesn't mind stayng a little further out. The place is very clean, and while very small, has everything you could need. If you are clotrophobic tho, perhaps not the space for you as I can say that the bathroom barely has room for you to sit on the toilette but I mean that's Paris living it's cramped right! Very tidy, good directions on arrival/leaving, and even left us a bottle of wine! Had a good guide book of reccomeded spots, and good communication. Only thing is that it is 6 long flights up, so not for someone who isn't fit (but he does mention this.) Quiet spot, AMAZING views but around an hour walk to the Effiel Tower. We didn't mind it, but just thought I should mention. Cool spots nearby and right by the Sacre Coeur!
