This is a great studio in a nice part of Paris, not too far from the center. Just two blocks from the Metro, and walking distance to the trendy area of the 11th Arrondissement along Rue Charonne. Laurent is a gracious host and a good communicator. The kitchen is well-stocked with anything you might need for your stay.
Best of all, the apartment has some nice artistic touches. Since Laurent owns an art gallery, he keeps the space lively with several paintings, small sculptures, and decorative objects. It's a nice, welcoming space. Highly recommended.
The space is somewhat small, but that is to be expected in Paris. In fact, I think it is significantly bigger than the average Paris studio, with a separate eat-in-kitchen and sleeping space.
