Flat is located on the first floor so with luggage it was very easy and asp located within a 15 min walk to Gare Du Nord (train station with Eurostar to London). Flat was clean and Host was very clear with instructions and responsive. A bit small (typical from my experience with Paris) but GREAT location and close to multiple metro lines to easily get around. Safe area. There is a pipe with random water sounds as other reviews had mentioned but we all like sound machines so it was easily navigated around for my 2 friends and I
