This apartment was modern, comfortable, and clean. Benoit had his friend help us check in as he was out on vacation, but check in/out went just as smoothly and we still got all the info we needed. The area itself is a bit farther out, but it's still close to the metro station. Also - and this is the case for many apartments in Paris - be prepared to walk up several flights of stairs (I think 4 or 5 for this one?) to get to the flat. There was a brand new lift that wasn't working yet when we stayed, so if the climb is a concern you can ask about the status of that. All in all though, cool apartment and good stay!
