The space is as pictured and described. It was very good for a solo traveler spending time in Paris. The location was perfect for exploring Montmartre but is also close a number of metro stops. One of my days I spent at the Louvre and it only took about 30 minutes to get there. The space is small, but as a solo traveler it was plenty for me. The bathroom and shower have clearly been updated in recent years and function very well. As the listing describes, this apartment is up a number of stairs, so if you have difficulty walking or climbing stairs, this may not be the place for you, but it was just fine for me. I should also say that Alain was very accommodating to me when I first arrived. I was going on a walking tour and we arranged a way that I could drop off some bags beforehand which I greatly appreciated. The day before I departed I also had some questions about transportation to the airport and concerns about recent workers strikes. Alain was able to reassure me and my departure went smoothly. If I were to travel to Paris solo again, I would certainly consider staying here again.
