Great location, updated/modern, comfortable beds, quiet building with elevator, and close to many amenities. The Montparnasse area has so many restaurants within a short walk -- we ate well. Excellent options for bakeries/patisseries close by for breakfast or dessert. Grocery and fruit shop just down the block. Easy metro access with several close train stations made travel to any of the sites a breeze. Check-in and check-out were super easy. Alain is a great host. We highly recommend Alain's apartment and hope to return.
