We had a fantastic stay in Antoine's appartment. The rue the Belleville is great lively street with a nice and friendly vibe. My friend and I described the street as 'Chinatown meets hipster'. The appartment is close to Gare du Nord and the metrostation is really close.
We were welcomed by Cam, a friend of Antoine. She was really sweet and told us where to eat the best Asian foods. The appartment is extremely quiet, with a lovely green terrace. It's a tiny appartment, but everything looks 'loved'. The tiny kitchen is cute, there are beautiful plants, the colors on the wall look lovely and there were some interesting books on the shelves (too bad my French is terrible).
There was only one point of attention: The pillows on the bed are really hard and uncomfortable. Maybe it's an option to put some alternative pillows in the closet.
If I ever visit Paris again, I will definately come back to this place!!
