The apartment is airy and very comfortable. We enjoyed having space to work at the dining room table, relax and drink coffee in the morning. The bedrooms were located at opposite ends of the apartment, providing privacy for the two of us. The apartment is located in the African quartier very near the Chateau Rouge metro stop, close to Montmartre, so you have the contrast between African hair salons and specialty food shops, and the touristy allure of Montmartre and Sacre Coeur.
Our one hesitation in recommending the apartment was the difficulty in checking in. It involved putting in a code, then looking for a hidden key we never found, hence 40 minutes of being trapped in the hot foyer. We communicated with the host, but had to be rescued by someone in the building.
