This is a spacious and bright apartment overlooking the courtyard, so very quiet. Everything is sparkling clean and the facilities are very good, including a modern bathroom and a comfortable bed. The flat is a 10 minutes'walk from the Gare du Nord between two tube stations. The street is wonderful: three bakeries, butcher, fish shop, cheese shop, wine shop, post office and supermarkets are all within easy reach. It is really a home from home place and we were sorry to leave. We arrived a little early and Claire was there to welcome us and show us all the facilities. Communication with Sylvain was always quick and helpful. This is the best apartment we have found in Paris and I would recommend it without hesitation. We hope to return in the future.
