We enjoyed Yasmin’s place. It is comfortable and relatively spacious for two people. The courtyard helps keep the apartment quiet in a busy area. It is located on the edge of the 19 and 20 Arrondissements, which has few tourists and is often called the “vrai” (true) Paris. The metro station is almost across the street and you can go directly into the 1st Arrondissement and other touristy areas. We are frequent travelers to Paris and try to stay in a different area of the city. If you are new to Paris, this might be a challenge for you. However, we loved the wonderful boulangerie just outside the front door, the diversity of the neighborhood (Asian restaurants abound) and the beautiful park Buttes Charmonte nearby. Yasmin was an attentive host and we appreciated her efforts.
