Philippe's studio apartment was very easy to find, located only a short walk from Gare du Nord station, also within 5 mins to the nearest Metro station. Philippe wasn't able to introduce us the evening we arrived, but his friend Thierry did a great job of conveying the details of our stay. Throughout the stay, Philippe kept in contact with us; the check-out process was very straightforward. All amenities in the apartment were kept very clean, the bathroom was very modern and spacious, and there was plenty of storage space for our luggage. I definitely recommend booking this studio apartment if you're in Paris for the weekend and want an affordable and comfortable stay.
