A beautifully styled apartment in an exciting up-and-coming area. I stayed here alone but there's plenty of room for 2 people (or even a third). The room has a separate bathroom/kitchen section and then a corridor leading to a very-well lit bedroom with unique blue parquet flooring and a little mezzanine. Ménilmontant itself is very exciting with some of the cheapest café/bars in Paris as well as bi-weekly markets almost on your doorstep. There is Rue Oberkampf (great nightlife) nearby and neighbouring Belleville (cheap food!) also within walking distance, as well as being 15 minutes from the centre by metro. Nicola was an incredibly flexible and patient host and waited into the evening to greet me even though I was heavily delayed. He gave me a thorough explanation of how the apartment worked and loads of suggestions for the surrounding area and Paris at large. He even offered to show me around! Thank you so so much, I know where I'm staying next time I'm back in Paris!
