Myriam and her sister Laila are excellent hosts. Communication was quick and helpful. The apartment itself is comfortable with modern amenities, but located in an older building with tons of character and a great view of the Canal Saint-Denis. Book Myriam's apartment if you are looking for a stay in a real neighborhood where you can eat and drink (and shop for bread, cheese and wine, etc.) alongside local Parisians rather than just rubbing shoulders with other tourists. When you are ready to venture out, the apartment is only a block or two from two Metro stops. We would definitely stay here again.
