This wonderful flat served as our base for ten days in Paris and it was very centrally located, with an all-important feature: being super close to a Métro stop (Bonne Nouvelle). Chris gave us a quick tour of the neighborhood when we arrived and it turned out to be very useful when it came time to consider what we wanted for dinner. In fact, some of the best places to eat and drink in Paris are in the neighborhood, including Bulliz, Restaurant 52, Bonhomie, Zazza, and Le Syndicat. The neighborhood isn't the ritziest or quietest you'll find in Paris, if that's what you're after, but it's very much full of Paris life. We would say this flat is better suited for younger individuals or couples like ourselves, and it was perfect for packing light since we had access to private laundry facilities, fresh towels and linens, and coffee for those early morning when the cafés weren't open yet. Don't bother packing umbrellas, irons, blowdryers, hangers etc. as those are all provided. One thing to note is that the ceiling in the loft bedroom is very low. The listing is clear and honest about this but it might surprise you just how low it is in person. No matter how much you know it's there, you'll inevitably bump your head on the ceiling a few times. But all in all that didn't detract from our experience and we wouldn't hesitate to stay at one of Angie & Chris' places again; neither should you.
