Maximilien's place met all our expectations, clean, with all modern amenities and a good location for exploring nearby and for trips into the centre of Paris. It is stylish and has the imprint of his personality, but not to the extent of being distracting. It was comfortable, with good ventilation via the bi-axial windows, and the many fans were a lifesaver in the warm days we spent here. One issue I was not prepared for was the amount of noise from the street, from workmen, traders and people enjoying local bars and restaurants late into the night (Friday and Saturday) and early in the morning! This was a problem as we really needed to keep windows open to be comfortable. In cooler weather/seasons it's perhaps not a problem.
