Maxime's place is large, with more room than we needed, it has a cute, fully stocked kitchen with a view, and each room has a view of Paris from both North and South perspectives. Two large, glass doors open up into small balconies. From the bedroom, you can see the Eiffel Tower, and the cathedrals. The other, in the living room, has a dazzling view of rooftops and the skyline.
The apartment seems to have been recently renovated, and is extremely clean and spacious. The bed was extra comfortable, and it has two bathrooms, one small room for the toilet, and one larger with sink, shower/bathtub and a clothes washing machine.
No television. But the internet is great.
It is located on the 8th floor and has a modern elevator! Very nice neighborhood, surprisingly quiet at night considering it's proximity to the busy street. Countless restaurants, coffee shops, meat and pastry shops within a few hundred feet, and its a few blocks from the lively town square of Republique.
Easy access to all the tourist spots through the Metro station there.
A few of the nights we smelled cigarette smoke, but, welcome to Paris ;).
Maxime was entirely accessible, and answered by texts within minutes.
You cannot go wrong choosing this place!
