Paul’s apartment in Abbesses was bright and spacious with a great view where on a clear day you can see the Eiffel Tower. The area is now one of our favourite in Paris, Abbesses is filled with great restaurants and local shops. Although it is by Montmartre and near Pigalle it is authentic and not touristy like those areas at all. Paul is a good host and is very responsive. We had a lovely time thanks to his hospitality.
