This place is perfect for a solo traveler looking for a base while in Paris. It is near to the metro station, is a safe and quiet neighborhood with lots of shops and restaurants nearby, and Pauline is a great host. The place is small but has all you need. Also know there’s stairs and no lift but that’s the case in many places. In general when traveling in Europe it’s best for you to pack only what you can carry up and down stairs! As described you’ll share the hall with Pauline but there is a door and lock to where you stay. I left safe as a solo female traveler.
