Mohamed was an awesome host. He was extremely quick to respond and let us get to the place a little early since our flight got in at 10:30 am. Whenever we needed something he was very responsive and his place was perfect for our trip. My girlfriend and I wanted to do a lot of sightseeing, so all we really needed the apartment for was to sleep and put our stuff. There was plenty of room and it would have been very comfortable even if we had spent more time there. Will definitely consider this listing again when I return to Paris.
The apartment is not within 10 minutes of the Eiffel Tower, however. It's 10 minutes from the nearest metro or a 20 minute walk to the tower. LOTS of shops right near the apartment though (i.e. bakeries, restaurants, convenience stores, fresh fruit shops, etc.) A lovely place to be even if it wasn't as close to the tower as we had thought.
