Although Tifenn was out of town during my visit to Paris, she made the process of getting to the apartment very smooth. The room itself is small, but still very comfortable. It is perfect for one or two people. The rest of the apartment is cozy and pleasant, with lots of light and plants. You can tell Tifenn has put a lot of love in decorating the place. Additionally, the location in Paris is very convenient, as it is a walk less than ten minutes to Nation metro station, a major station that connects to a lot of points of interests in Paris. Not to mention that Alexandre Dumas station is like a two minute walk away, and that also connects to cool areas in Paris. I ended up walking to most places of interest in Le Marais, Republique, Bastille, Lovure, Canal St. Martin, from her apartment, but if you want the convenience of a metro nearby this works great as well.

The neighborhood is great because it is close to central Paris, yet feels authentic and local, without the crazy tourist bustle of other nearby neighborhoods. There are lots of cool restaurants, outdoor markets, and bars in the same block. If I ever return to Paris, I would surely stay here again. You can't beat this for the price, especially in a city like Paris. Thanks Tifenn!
