Great apartment near the Stalingrad metro station to get into the center of town. Wonderful bakery just around the corner where you can get enormous chocolate croissants, tarts, and excellent baguettes made fresh every day. (ask for the baguette tradition, it is delicious and worth the slight increase in price). Also a nice grocery store about a 3 minute walk away. The kitchen has everything you need to cook if you want to. Cool coffee machine. But there are several cafes and restaurants in the neighborhood well within walking distance.
The apartment had plenty of room for our family of 5 people ( all adult children). We used the appliances which are all in good working order. Very nice to have 2 bathrooms with all of us.
The canal is a lovely place to walk right across the road. It is a popular spot for locals to congregate. The plage has some fun activities for kids in the summer along the canal.
Overall, we would definitely stay here again if we come again with the family. It is good value for money if you don’t mind staying out of the center a little. (Again, metro is easy to take anywhere you want to go)
