We found staying in the flat a a fantastic way to experience authentic Parisien life. Chris and Angie were brilliant hosts throughout our visit and went out of their way to be helpful (letting us leave our cases in their home when we checked out so we could enjoy our last day sightseeing). They were both very welcoming and Chris kindly showed us the highlights of the neighbourhood. The blog written by Angie was also very useful to look at before our stay and while we were there.
The photos shown of the flat give a very accurate representation of what it is like. Visitors do need to bear in mind the ceiling above the bed is low and requires you to bend (even short people like me!)
The bed itself is very comfortable to relax in after a busy day sightseeing. The flat is quiet and there is a great shower. There is also a fantastic Nespresso coffee machine which we enjoyed a lot.
The area is very vibrant with lots of nice cafes and restaurants with food from around the world. Be sure to try the choux buns from the bakery opposite which are delicious and the nearby Gros restaurant. It is also within a short walk of Gare Du Nord station and close to the Bonne Nouvelle Metro so getting around and seeing the sights of the beautiful city is not difficult. We loved it and can't wait to come back and hope to try out one of Chris and Angie's other properties.
