I stay at Duane place for 6 night. This was my first time in Paris. This place is great for solo travelers. The description and the picture are accurate. But what is makes the place a great deal is the LOCATION. It is less than 10 min walk from the Eiffel Tower. And there are lots of great restaurants and grocery store in the area. The trains and bus are 3 min walk from the place. And if you need a SIM card, one of the stores has them for sale. Duane, responded right away to my messages. I hope my review helps you get a better understand to the location!
