Nathalie's place looks as pictured, but is much smaller. You can hear everything from the neighbors and those in the flat with you. It is literally at the bottom of the steps of the Sacre Coeur, which is awesome! The train rides to the other sites are about a short 30 mins away (including the walk to the station) which isn't bad. You will need to get toilet tissue, paper towels, and other basic necessities. There are several restaurants and stores nearby.
