Just to set expectations, the review is as per the perception of a young (26-29 yo) couple.

Coming back to what's really important, the loft is amazing :) It is actually inside a building that seems to have been used by (and to some extent, is still used by) craftsmanship, architects, actors and artists. The vibe is quite nice.

In terms of the basics: heating was perfect, the flat was clean, hot water - not a problem, cooking and eating in the loft - perfect. The WiFi was pretty poor on iPhone 6, iPhone 5s and on my Mac. However, it seemed to work quite fast on the Orange TV, as we were streaming songs on Deezer without any issues. I'm guessing it's an issue with the antenna.

The flat is situated on Rue de Charonne, near some great, yet affordable places to eat. You can easily find the renown french bakeries and the local french restaurants. Yummy :)

There is even a supermarket across the street with a generous offering and a great schedule (open each day until 23:00, except Sunday, when it closes at 22:00)

Getting around from Charonne is quite easy. There are 2 Metro stations (Bastille and Charonne), which will take you to the most sought after touristic spots in less than 30 minutes.

Rue du Lappe is somewhat close by and it's a very colorful place to visit at night time (bars, parties, etc.).

All in, we found our stay at Brightness Bastille really nice :).

Thank you Marie and thank you Fabienne.
