We really liked the feel of the apartment and neighborhood. You are near two different metro lines with a short walk (usually under 5 minutes). We enjoyed the local restaurants, and found it to be a great central place to explore all over Paris. In addition, one of the two local stops is directly on the to Montparnesse Rail for most of our day trips, and other a direct line to the Gare du Nord for other day trips. It was a great experience, and will try to use this same location for future trips!
