Franck & Patrick's place is exactly as pictured. Very short walk to Gare de Nord and L'Est making for very easy transfers to and from both airports. Franck very kindly allowed us to drop bags off early, and leave bags behind late, as our flight times did not perfectly coordinate with their check-in/check-out times. Neighborhood is nice - walking distance to Montmarte and metros nearby to get to all major sites. I definitely recommend staying here for a true Parisian vacation!
