Alain's apartment was a great place to stay for our visit to Paris. It is right next to the Louvre, so was in a very convenient location to walk to all of the attractions that we wanted to visit! It was clean and had all of the amenities we needed for a few day visit. The check-in/check-out process was very easy. You had to walk up 4 flights of stairs in a narrow winding staircase (not unusual in Paris) which was fine for us but may be a consideration for some looking to book here. Overall we had a great stay!
