33. Avenue de Versailles – also near the Radio thing – top floor with chambre de bonne, but not quite right

When I mention the Radio thing, it’s a reference to Maison de la Radio, which basically houses all the radio stations. It’s huge and ugly and the surrounding area is not much better. This apartment wasn’t bad however and with it, the upstairs “chambre de bonne” or old maid’s quarters was even included. This wasn’t a selling point though because even in the middle of February standing up there in a room big enough only for a bed, the heat was stifling and the small space claustrophobic and cramped. It didn’t make sense to spend extra money for space we would have a hard time putting to use.
