Noemie's place was beautiful -- the pictures are great but they don't prepare you for how lovely it is. There is more than enough space for a party of 8 to live comfortably here. Internet speed was excellent too -- I was able to get quite a bit of work done.

If you have young children I wouldn't recommend it though, since there are some pretty low banisters on the top floor.

As for the location, there is a lot of decent bars and cafes in the 11th so you won't go lacking for things to do, and there are excellent groceries and boulangeries nearby. And since there are no major tourist magnets around here, the place won't be flooded with tourists, which is nice.

Lastly, Noemie was quite communicative and was there for us if we needed anything -- she played the part of a great hostess.

This apartment is perfect for a team of 4 location-independent professionals on a workation, 2-4 vacationing couples who want to feel like they're in a "real" neighborhood in Paris away from the crowd, or a family with teenagers looking for an affordable and better value place to stay in the city.
