We had a quite brief but great time staying at Virginie's lovely apartment - which looks exactly as the photos suggest! Beautiful kitchen area, which we unfortunately weren't around long enough to use. Super comfy sofa. The neighbourhood is buzzy and close to Gare du Nord (walkable in 10mins), the suggested bakery opposite is very nice and there are lots of bars, restaurants, creperies, etc to choose from locally. If you are seeking typical tourist activities the metro is only a few minutes away and gets you to your desired location in no time at all. One thing to mention is the stairs up to the apartment are quite narrow and steep, so no good for wheelchair users or possibly people using walking aids. Thanks for everything, hope to be back again soon.
