We stayed her for three amazing nights and loved it. Alain waited for us even when we were a little late for check-in and was responsive when we had a problem with the wifi. It was a clean, nice, central place to crash at night while visiting Paris. We would absolutely stay here again.
The neighborhood has multiple bakeries, restaurants, and grocery stores along with easy access to the metro, the Louvre, the Seine, and the Westfield Mall (if you like that sort of thing). If you like to walk, you can even walk to Notre Dame, the Musee d'Orsay, the Royal Palace, the Champs Elysees and so much more. You can also just catch the metro or a bus for a few stops or rent a city bike (200 yard away) or a scooter to ge to these places as well.
The apartment was in good shape, stylish, and well appointed with a little bit of space to more around. The bed was fine, the down comforter was great, the temperature was just right. The only thing we didn't like was the shower setup. The shower worked well and had plenty of warm water, but there is nothing keeping the water from going all over the place where the shower head is so you can't stand under it and shower, you have to stand near the opposite wall (where the wall that keeps water in the shower actually is) and shower with one hand. It was annoying, but workable. A slight change in configuration could easily sort out this one issue. However, this issue wouldn't stop us from coming here again.
The wifi stopped working late one night due to a networking change by the Internet provider. Alain let us know she would have someone there to fix it the next day and it was done before we got back so that was great.
I would note that the apartment is on the second floor so you take a very cool, steep wooden, circular staircase with shallow steps to get up into the apartment. No problem when you're not carrying anything, but it's a little difficult to get large, heavy luggage in or out of the place--still doable, but it takes a little doing.
All in all it was a great stay, in a great place, in a great location. Thanks Alain!!
