Antoine's place is surely one to book on your upcoming trip to Paris. The apartment is well equipped and extremely clean. The apartment has a 'hip' lofted layout that earns it the trendy title that Antoine gives the listing. There is cookware, stovetop, washing machine, free wi-fi and perhaps my favorite feature: a garage door like apparatus that covers the windows to keep the sun out for as long as you would like to sleep in to keep you well-rested on your stay.
The Canal St. Martin neighborhood is a gem in itself, filled with interesting restaurants & bars that allow you to have a more 'local' experience outside of the main tourist areas in Paris. But is also close to several main metro stations to venture wherever you please with great ease. Antoine has a well thought out guidebook to help guide you through suggestions of places in the surrounding area, is a very responsive host, and even left us a bottle of wine for our stay. Definitely hoping to book this place again upon any future visits returning to Paris. C'est bon!
