Alice's apartment is ideal, it has everything you need for a few days: a small but complete kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and sitting area. It is beautifully located on the seventh flour (there's an elevator) with two large balconies and a fantastic view over Paris and the Sacré Coeur. I didn't meet Alice in person (her kind brother showed me in), but she kept in touch to make sure I was well, very sweet!
The Batignolles area is full of little restaurants, bars, cinemas and bakeries. Alice has written down many interesting addresses and also practical information about the supermarkets in the area.
I'd happily stay there again!
