Florence's apartment was exactly as described in the listing. We are a family of four with two grown-up daughters. The kitchen was spacious and well epipped, the bed and the sofa bed were both comfortable and the shower was good. We were there during very hot weather so the apartment was a bit uncomfortable, but Florence kindly bought a second fan for us to use (there was already one) which made a big difference. In cooler weather, the apartment would be nice to spend time in. With the living room window open, there is quite a lot of noise from the street below but it didn't bother us and there is a great view across to the Gare du Nord. The area around the apartment isn't lovely but it never felt unsafe and the apartment is very secure. Florence replied swiftly to all our messages and although she couldn't meet us herself, we were met by Quentin who was very friendly and helpful. A great place to stay for a family of four as long as you don't mind climbing lots of stairs!
