Francesco’s apartment is all that the description promises and much more. It was clean, well appointed and well stocked with all the amenities that a guest should have. The WiFi worked smoothly. The check in was smooth. The key pick up point is within walking distance. We’d requested him for an early check in and he had very kindly accepted the request and arranged for a 1200 noon check in. What came as a pleasant surprise was the basin view and the breathtaking view of all Paris landmarks from all the windows. Eiffel, Arc de Triomphe, Sacre Coeur, Pompidou centre, Notre Dam- you name it and they all are there! Great place. Also within five minutes walking distance is the Crimée metro station. A ten minute walk takes you to the supermarket. All in all I would strongly recommend it!
