Christopher's place is a total find!
Situated in an apartment building with some lovely early modernist/Art Deco features - it's really as nice as the photos suggest, and even bigger in person.
The shower is awesome, the bed is SUPER comfy and quiet and the main room is really tranquil. The kitchen is kitted out with everything you need - and because this is also Christopher's home, it feels really homely (but also super clean and kitted out for guests).
And that doesn't even cover the view - which is lovely and really gives an expansive feel top the place (quite rare in Paris, known for it's tiny homes), and you can just make out the top of Sacre Coeur popping over the square rooftops.
It is situated on a small and very leafy typical Parisian square - with a bandstand, playground and it doubles as a nice place to grab a quick coffee should you want a shorter bit of outside time away from the apartment.
For those that grumble about not being in the very heart of Paris, this might not suit - but for the rest of us who know how small and accessible the central metropolitan area is (the 'arrondissements') it's super easy - and just a quick tram and single 10 min metro ride to Gare Du Nord for UK/Dutch/Belgian train travellers.
For those in the know - the 18e is really where it's at.
Just book it!
