Annie was a communicative and welcoming host, both before and after I arrived. The bright, art-filled apartment is located in a vibrant neighborhood, close to several metro stations, the Canal St-Martin, Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, and Parc de Belleville. Easy access to the Right Bank/Rive Droite. I'd recommend this apartment to others wanting to get to know this lively area of the city in particular (check out the neighborhood market at Metro Belleville on Tuesdays and Fridays).
