nydal is a great and really nice host. I stayed two months in his appartment. Once locked myself out. It was 10 pm, but Nydal was there 30 minutes later. There is everything you need. The place is absolutly great and safe. From bastille to the appartment you can easily walk, (20min). There is a market twice a week, lots of supermarkets open til 10pm, lots of cool bars, etc... At this place there are no tourists, which was great for me, so i felt like beeing a Parisian:) I would definitly go to nydal again. Alors, merci pour tout et a la prochaine fois :)
