Wonderful area of paris. This flat give access to montmartre and lovely little steets with lovely boutiques over towards rue des martyres. easy walk to shopping at boulevard Haussmann which draws you easily towards champs élysées etc if you want to go to those iconic places. lots and lots of bars and cafes that feel very real and not "touristy" as in other parts of paris. its an easy walk to Gare Du Nord for those coming in on Eurostar. There is parking at paid parking very close by but don't leave any items in car! secure doesn't mean thieves can't get in...we learnt the hard way. C'est la vie! did't retract from our wonderful stay at Adrien's flat.
