As stated, the flat is located near two subway stations in a quirky and somewhat lively neighbourhood (in a good sense). Shops and bars are not far, one needs about thirty minutes (by foot) and about 15-20min (by subway) to the center. There are a lot of sharepoints for bikes in the area (which we didnt use, since we thought the traffic was quite intense in Paris). The flat was tidy and bright, sheets and towels were provided. The kitchen is equipped a bit sparsely, but nevertheless enough for basic cooking. The apartment is, as a typical parisien apartment, not too soundproof, which did not pose an issue to us. Throughout, it possesses a unique and lovely charm. Now to the cherry on top of the pie: Marc is a cheerful and respectful host. His open and welcoming attitude towards us sparked a bouquet of funny moments. I’m pretty sure one can get along with Marc quite well. 5/7
