The apartment is great, well furnished and located in a hip area of Paris, conveniently located for travel by car and public transport, and full of cool shops and nice restaurants and bars. The weather was nice and as a consequence the atmosphere around the Canal was very lively, lined with people drinking, eating and chatting all night long. The flat was great as a base for our family of five to explore Paris for a couple of days, and we were made to feel very welcome by our host. We had a great time!
