We were generally pleased with our stay at Karim's apartment. The place was in a lovely neighbourhood with plenty of small french cafes and bakeries that opened till later in the night. Other massive plus points were the 3 nearby supermarkets which made it convenient for "cheaper" meals and the close proximity to the metro, in which, Google stated that the walk was around 15mins, but we felt that it could be covered briskly within 10 mins. This liveliness of the place gave off a sense of assurance and at no point did we feel our safety was threatened.

The apartment was exactly as presented in the picture and Karim made it a point to go through almost every single aspect of it, which was much appreciated. When we arrived, we were also surprised to find that everything was very neatly arranged and extremely clean and amenities such as toiletries and towels were available, making us feel at home immediately. Many kind words for our host as he also made special arrangements for our checkout due to our late flight and that we are delighted that our entire holiday went about smoothly.

In whole, we would definitely recommend this place to couples looking for a cheap place to stay in Paris while being in a good, safe and somewhat central district! :)
