This room is perfect for a solo visitor to Paris. The building is quiet, the area is friendly and feels safe day and night and what's more, you really feel like you are experiencing something of the real Paris in this almost-tourist-free enclave behind the Sacre-Coeur.

Nearby there are lots of cafes, restaurants and bars (I would recommend Bab-Ilo, a little jazz bar just 2 minutes round the corner) as well as the famous basilica with its enchanting views over Paris. As this area is less frequented by tourists you will find very reasonable prices for food and drink. A little further is the bustling Place de Clichy and the only-slightly-seedy Pigalle, home of the famous Moulin Rouge. You can get most places in the city within half an hour from Jules Joffrin metro (line 12)

Audrey was unable to meet me as I arrived on a mid-week afternoon but her instructions for accessing the room were straightforward and I felt assured that she would have helped in any way that she could. For the price you really can't ask for better. Merci Audrey!
