We loved our stay with Tiphaine. Her home is so charming and cozy and she was so very friendly the entire time. She left us delicious pastries for breakfast every morning and we loved the view of the river from the balcony attached to our room. Canal St Martin is beautiful to walk along and there are tons of restaurants nearby and many of them are open very late at night. Along with that, the commute to popular tourist attractions was very straightforward. We felt safe and secure during the entirety of our stay and are very glad we chose to stay here. Highly recommend!
