Alienor’s place has a spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower. When laying in bed, you see the lights on the tower and they blink at times. Really beautiful. There is subway transporting across the street and around the corner and the Eiffel Tower is very close.
The apt itself is small, but clean and certainly adequate. It’s not fancy, but has the basics of what you need. Although it was a hot week and there is no AC, the big windows open and along with the fan Alienor provides, made it fairly comfortable at night, even when hot.
The area, while being next to the Eiffel Tower, is also slightly removed from the rest of the city. There are not as many eating options nearby as this appears to be a very touristy area, more than a typical neighborhood. We found the restaurants to be way overpriced and rather dull compared to ones further away.
Yes the elevator is tiny, but it sure beats walking up the stairs, which is what most of the apts in Europe have. I was grateful for this.
If your main reason for visiting Paris is the area around the Eiffel Tower, this place is for you.
