I had a great stay at Sharon’s place! Sharon’s communication was quick and her place worked perfectly for a single traveler. The neighborhood was not tourist-y at all and within walking distance of must see places like canal Saint-Martin and Le Marais. I was pleasantly surprised to find a great Jazz Manouche Jam (Django Reinhardt style) at the bar called La Caravane right across the street - I was told this happens every Sunday night and I’d highly recommend stopping off for a drink and a set of music there before calling it a night. Yes, the apartment was comfortable and as described, but what really makes it is that anytime you step outside there’s undeniable atmosphere. It was a great place for my first time exploring the city of light.
