Delphyne's place was a great base to explore Paris. It was easy to get there from the train station and Belleville was a great area. It is really multicultural and has lots of great bars and restaurants nearby. The apartment overlooks a busy street, but it's amazing how effective the double glazed windows are - if you have them open it's quite noisy but as soon as you close them the majority of the sound disappears (even more so if you're in the bedroom). We love walking around a city and enjoyed walking from the apartment to other parts of Paris. The apartment itself has everything you need and is very light and airy. We would definitely recommend Delphyne's place!
