Silvana's place is very comfortable - I stayed for a month and felt very at home! The location is fantastic, near a lot of cool restaurants and cafes in the Oberkampf area, 10 minute walk from Republique along with several other even closer metro stations, and within walking distance (30 min) of more-central Paris. As a solo-female traveller I felt very safe, Silvana was fantastic for communication and very accommodating when some of my plans changed. Would definitely recommend!
