This apartment was the bomb! Edouard was a wonderful host and even helped us move our luggage up and down the seven flights of stairs. The apartment was spotless and wonderfully decorated with retro artifacts and had a nice warm feel. He has speakers wired in each of the rooms so you can listen to music from his record player (with an amazing selection of records to choose from!) in any room. You can see Sacré-Cœur from one of the windows and the other windows have great views of Paris. The apartment is surprisingly quiet with the busy street so close and walking up the seven flights of stairs to the flat was actually kind of fun... especially after eating too much food ;) The neighbourhood is a bit "multi-cultural", but we never felt unsafe. We actually really liked the location because it added to our overall cultural experience of Paris :-) The flat was about a 5-10 minute walk to some of the popular areas of Montmarte and there was a train station a few minutes away and Velibs (bikes to rent) around the corner so it is a pretty great location for exploring Montmarte! I highly recommend staying at Edouard's place, it was such a great apartment - we felt like we were in a movie! Edouard is a lovely host and we'll definitely be staying here again next time we're in Paris :)
