Paul's loft was ideal for trip to Paris. It was clean, with a cool layout and plenty of space as compared to a hotel room -- which would have cost us more. There are several great bakeries in the neighborhood, and a large (for Paris) grocer nearby, making self catering convenient and economical.

The neighborhood is fantastic, too. You are only a couple of minutes from Chemin Vert metro, or a 5-10 min walk down the boulevard to Bastille. We loved our stay there and would definitely do so again.
