Alain's apartment is just as it is described, if not even better in person. It is very spacious, clean, and well equipped. You have everything you need within a 5 min walk including restaurants, grocery stores, and a taxi stand. It's in a quiet and charming neighborhood and just a short cab ride to the heart of Paris. Daniela greeted us upon arrival and provided us with the Internet code, key, towels, and general info. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
