You know those tall, very narrow city houses that are typical of Belgium and the Netherlands? This is a loft right at the top of one of those. If you struggle with stairs, this isn't the place for you. But it's a pleasant space that manages to feel both authentic and modern at the same time. I very much enjoyed meeting Lucile and her son. The neighborhood is fine. Not posh, not touristy, it's a real neighborhood instead. Would be happy to visit again.
