So glad we found Charlie’ studio, we couldn’t have wished for a better base to explore local Paris. Belleville is a very vibrant neighbourhood with everything on your doorstep (bars, bakeries, restaurants, shops, kebabs, metro, etc...). We loved spending evenings sitting outside a terrace, sipping wine and watching people go by. We used all of Charlie’s tips for food and drinks in the local area, and were impressed by all. We are walkers so we enjoyed wandering about the neighbourhood and slowly join the centre but you have 2 metro stations very close. Charlie’ studio is really well optimised and equipped for a typical Paris studio with loads of quirky bits and bobs giving charm to the place. The bed down was super comfy (good mattress), the kitchen great to cook (and Charlie was very kind to let us use his condiments) and the shower was big. All in all, this is a really well thought out studio, located in an area that will give you a taste of Paris off the beaten track. Charlie was a great host too, really communicative in advance of our arrival, very flexible with check-in/out process (went the extra mile to make it easy for us) and always available should we need it. We couldn’t recommend his place enough. Merci beaucoup !
