Antoine’s space is immaculately clean, very stylish and has the most AMAZING shower! We didn’t mind at all that the bed/bathroom were in a lofted area, the whole space was very cozy. Unfortunately, being a light sleeper, staying in a room on the ground level directly next to the street and also the entrance hallway to the other apartments was not ideal for me. I could hear each time someone left the building and every conversation passerby’s we’re having as they walked, even with the lowered retractable metal shade. With the help of earplugs, a white noise app on my phone and a fan I found in one of the cupboards, I was able to peacefully rest each evening. My boyfriend, on the other hand, is a heavy sleeper and needed none of these things. Also, there is a washer/dryer in the unit which was definitely handy! The room is nearby many metro stops and a quick walk to Gare du Nord or Gare de l’est.
