It's located very near Gare du nord station, which is convenient if you're travelling by train. It's only about a 20-30 minute walk to the major attractions of Paris. The room is comfortable for one person. Giles was a very friendly, helpful and accommodating host. He helped me out a lot when I couldn't make it on time because of a delayed train. Because of this, I would wholeheartedly recommend his as a host.
