If I could give this place six stars for location I would. In the heart of Paris’s most centrally located neighborhood with fun restaurants and shops (not to mention a grocery store) within steps of your front door, you can’t go wrong with Alexandre’s place. Host communicated well, was flexible, and gave recommendations. Loft provided many windows, giving the place superb ventilation - especially important for us Americans who don’t know how to survive a European summer without A/C. Be warned though, the 107 steps to the top floor are not for the faint of heart!
