Nicolas welcomed my friends and I to the apartment. It was a refreshing change from the previous apartment - clean and tidy with a contemporary feel. Apartment is 5mins' walk to train station which was really convenient for us to do day trips. It was also a breezy half-an-hour walk to central where all the sights and restaurants were. If you are a lady travelling alone, just be careful around your neighbourhood - just like how you would feel staying near Gare du Nord in Paris.
