Agnes' apartment is beautiful - like walking into an art gallery. It was just right for our family of 4. We were close to everything. The neighbourhood has great cultural diversity and good restaurants, Metro nearby. We would stay here again, but it would be more comfortable for those without kids or who feel comfortable facing the poverty you see on the streets. We felt safe - it depends on who you are. You see another side of Paris, for sure. Agnes was a perfect host. Super warm and accommodating.
