This is a very nice bijoux apartment situated at the base of the Montmartre hill and conveniently near the Gare du Nord. It is a home that is lived in when not rented out, and is the perfect size for a couple (in international terms it is quite small, but for Paris apartments, this probably rates as medium sized). The bedroom has plenty of space around the bed and a back window onto a quiet interior, and has the bathroom en suite. The best feature is the sitting room and small balcony (which it is possible for two people to sit on) with a lovely view. The décor is very tasteful throughout the flat, including some beautifully arranged book shelves. Much of the surrounding area has been renovated and is undergoing a renewal, with pedestrianized streets, lots of bio-organic stores, cafés, boulangeries, etc. Although we never met the hosts in person, Félix was in touch whenever we needed information and all key arrangements functioned perfectly. This was a great place to stay for a couple, and we'd stay here again if we went back to Paris!
