The location of this place is great, even though you are not in a tourist area the metro is just at the bottom of the building. Grocery stores, coffee shops and restaurants are very close. The view is amazing, pictures do not do it justice, so much closer when you are there. We had a great time watching the tower light up every night while sitting out in the patio. Our only BUT would be the no AC part, we realize that many places in France do not have AC even many restaurants but it was pretty hot at nights, there was one fan which we used for my daughter to sleep on the sofa bed but we needed another one for the other bed. Other than that it was a great place, always felt safe, would definitely recommend it!
