Richard’s apartment is fantastic. It was such a luxury to have our own tranquil courtyard. The apartment is the ground floor of a large property at the end of a dead-end street which means it is really peaceful and quiet. Yet it is only moments away from shops, bars, restaurants and everything you could need. Even a bus into the centre. There are two Metro stations nearby, one of which is the same line as Gare du Nord so it is really easy to get to for those coming by Eurostar. It’s in a residential neighbourhood, away from tourists but still quite lively. Richard is a charming host.
