Lor was not in Paris but in London at the time and she offered to meet me in London prior to boarding the Eurostar to hand in the flat keys and give a few pointers, which was very much appreciated. The flat is well situated, 5 stops from Gare du Nord the train station and in a very lively, buzing, exotic location. Lots of restaurants, patisseries, organic and normal supermarket, cafés etc...The Belleville stop for the Metro /tube station is down the road. The glat itself is super spacious, 4th floor so a great view and the light coming in us wonderful. So, light, airy. Be mindful that there is no lift but the stairs are lovely winded French style in dark wood, adding to the experience. Kitchen is super modern, bathroom off it is extra clean and so is the loo and the bed was very cost. I highly recommend this Belleville flat, a stone throw from Buttes Chaumont, the famous cemetery Père Lachaise and everywhere in fact with using your Navigo Card (the Paris equivalent to an Oyster card in London) but much better!! Have a great stay in Paris at Lor's
