Alexis’s flat is a lovely place to stay. Located in an upcoming area, the 11th Arrondissement, there are good restaurants and essential shopping places all around, including some ethnic, ‘world food’ eateries. The apartment is clean and quiet and is exactly as it appears in the listing. The stairs might be a struggle for some but are a good way to stretch legs otherwise. Walks along the canal and to the parks north and west are divine.
