My wife and I stayed for 5 nights at Jeans place. When we arrived we took a taxi to the apartment. The cab driver saw where we were going and told us to watch for pick pockets and close our bags which made us a little nervous. The neighborhood is heavily African and a bit of a culture shock at first but once we got settled in we never had problem. The two bars at the end of Rue de Suez were always busy. We went to the Olympic and was treated very well and had a good meal. Access to the apartment was secure and easy to figure out. The place was about a 15 to 20 minute subway ride to the tourist areas, but it was not difficult to get down there.
The apartment itself was very clean and spacious. The shower was in the bedroom which was different for us ha but not a problem.
It is a great space for the value. Jean was very good at communicating with me and even called me before I left to clear up a miscommunication. Check in instructions were very easy
