We stayed as a couple. The room was very small, and the roof of the building made it even more small, which sometimes bothered us. The toilet was outside of the room, which made the room less comfortable than we thaught. The location was perfect, you can almost walk everywhere and there were lots of nice cafes and stores around. And the top of the Eiffel Tower can be seen from the window, which makes a nice scene, especially in the evenings. We didn't meet Maia, it was like a renting a hotel room more than home experience.
