The wonderful apartment is as described, really well furnished, spacious and nicely done and in a fabulous location. There are 3 bakeries and 2 supermarkets within 3 mins walking as well as loads of bars and restaurants nearby, while the metro is right on its doorsteps. Gare du Nord is walkable.
As it is a vibrant neighbourhood, its worth taking earplugs.
Pauline and hear partner are lovely hosts and communication was excellent. We could check in a little early which was super handy on arrival.
We would definitely recommend staying as there are few places in Paris that so beautiful and well located.
