Jean’s place has quite a few important pluses and considerations that all should know.
The location of his apartment is fantastic and uniquely situated within a blocks of the Eiffel Tower park. It also across the street from a metro station that has 3 connecting metro lines which means that you are not far by metro to many of Paris’s attractions. There are plenty of food options just below the appartement. A Monoprix across the street, à Boulangerie two doors down with everything one needs for breakfast, as well as various cafes on two corners.
The apartment itself is quite spacious for two for what it is. Now what this is, is an old European apartment in an old building. If you are looking for modern amenities, special details, and finishes, this is not it. From old Parque wood floors to kitchen and bathroom, None are updated, with the exception of the bed which was quite comfortable for getting a good nights rest. The apartment has windows facing the street. Remarkably, street noise was kept to a minimum throughout our stay allowing us to sleep provided the windows are kept shut. Fans were provided for air circulation.
Understand that though it was clean, it could always use more cleaning and maintenance as this apartment is old.
For basic travel needs, this place is perfect with excellent location.
