The whole experience was nothing less than fantastic and we loved every minute of it.

The photos and description accurately described the accommodation.
The flat was clean, comfy and felt just like home, which meant we could relax in to our holiday immediately. We were met by the neighbours who did a super job at greating us and getting settled in.

Tania had left some great tips and recommendations, which we tried out, and without exception were great.

The area is cool and from what we gathered is undergoing a process of gentrification, which we hope is not too rapid. There is a great mix of the ordinary and the special. The plane trees and the canal add a really lovely soft feel to the area.

The children (4, 6 and 9) loved the flat and the area too. Walking to the centre of Paris was possible with all of them and is probably the best way to really get a sense of the city.

The best bits: Beers and Orangina at the end of the day at Chez Prune. Lunch on the last day at Le Verre Vole; just awesome.

The worst bits: Going up the Eiffel Tower. Apart from the view from the second floor it's best appreciated from the ground. Going home!
