I had a very pleasant stay with Silouane. His apartment was in a nice area nearby the beautiful basin de la villette, parc de buttes-chaumont, and canal Saint Martin. Silouane speaks very good English and it was a delight to talk to him about music, culture, and we even played some music together. The bed is cozy, apartment clean, and the balcony was great to relax on. If you are looking for a more relaxed place than the central Paris area this is a great choice.
