This is a great place to stay for a real sense of neighbourhood - local shops, artisan bakers, cafes and restaurants galore. The Parisian Notting Hill especially when there is a vide-grenier (boot fair) taking place like on the Sunday of our visit.
The apartment is a delight - so spacious, filled with light and everything you need, but with the massive bonus of a green oasis at its centre.
This is not Paris touristique - this is Paris local!
