My husband and I had the most memorable and wonderful experience in Paris, in part to being able to stay in Edoaurd's lovely home. The apartment was described accurately and appeared exactly as it did in the photos and reviews. It was clean, sunny, and cozy and charming. Edouard was the perfect host! He responded to messages immediately and answered all of our questions. He was available for any of our needs. The apartment is walking distance from Gare du Nord and Barbes-Rochechouart Metro stations and easy to find since it's on a major street. The area is also within walking distance of the Sacré-Couer and Montmarte area. The apartment is in a very diverse and lively neighborhood, with little restaurants and shops. It is definitely a part of Paris that is not saturated with tourists, so it has an authentic urban vibe. Something to keep in mind is that the apartment is located on the 7th floor, without an elevator (lift). Luckily, we packed light and are in decent shape to climb the stairs. With a nice kitchen, bath, living area, bed and sound system throughout the apartment, we felt comfortable and recommend it to any traveler looking for a retreat "off the beaten path."
