Awesome! Very nice and helpful, welcoming host. The place is unique. This is what Airbnb initially was about, sharing your place. This might actually be the first time I'm not in someone's empty apartment turned Airbnb rental. Be prepared for some character ;p The apartment feels like an awesome, boheme place with a strong Asian theme. The room radiates good vibes and feels oddly spacious despite being cramped. Keep in mind Parisian apartments are small and this is especially true for a place that used to be an attic. But I made it work despite being a tall guy (gotta admit I bumped into a few things at first though).
The place is located within a trendy/artsy village-like area where young people gather to socialize. The immediate vicinity of the apartment is calm. The room has view on a small park remote from the busy Parisian streets.
The district as a whole is an interesting patchwork of modern apartment buildings, malls, traditional Parisian streets, and areas that used to be a village and still feel like it. Very close is Paris's Chinatown where you can find anything from traditional Chinese cakes to otaku havens. Ask the host for restaurant recommendations. There's also a Korean/Japanese grocery store 5m away (look up Ace Store).
The district while not touristy is one of the major transportation hub and is the kind of area where actual Parisians live. It's all very lively. Downtown is ~15m away by train.
Happy to recommend to travelers craving adventure - and an escape.
