Tanguy's apartment is a dream, clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated with a newly renovated state of the art kitchen and bathroom. Though he could not be there to welcome us, his friend Bastien accommodated our late arrival and was helpful and kind in getting us settled. The neighborhood is artistic and lively, near local bars and restaurants as well as supermarkets and fruit stands and is close to public transportation. After long days of traveling around Paris it was wonderful to come back to a place that felt more and more like home.
