We had a great stay. The pictures are accurate, it is a very cosy and homey place. We were a bit late but our hosts waited and were very welcoming and patient. We arrived at Gare du Nord and spent 50 euro on a taxi van to get there, we would recommend taking the subway as it is very easy from there and cheaper. The neighbourhood is very vibrant with shops, pubs, food to go and feels very safe. The subway is about a 2 minute walk. Highly recommended and we would stay again.
