The flat is bright, clean and tastefully decorated. It is within walking distance of several museums, and in an interesting area itself. There is a baker two doors away, and easy grocery shopping nearby.

One glitch during our stay was with access to the building: the key that we were given did not work the door, despite us trying it for long stretches of time. We ended up having to beg neighbours to lend us an electronic fob (which everybody else appeared to be using). This meant we had to sacrifice the first and last evenings of our stay. I hope Floriane will sort this out for future guests.

I would recommend staying here once building access is sorted out. The canal is a lovely and peaceful part of Paris.
