We stayed for one week in Armand's apartment and absolutely loved it! Armand is an excellent host - very helpful and quick to respond to any queries. The apartment was bright, spacious, clean and well-designed - and filled with many interesting books and artworks. Belleville is a great area to stay in - good food / bars / artist studios / the wonderful Buttes Chaumont park is very close by. A stay at Armand's place is highly recommended!
