This studio is adequate & comfortable. Michael's partner, Philippe, met me and explained all I needed to know. He was great, charming and responsive. However, I was extremely disappointed that the studio is not in the heart of Montmartre! It is in the outskirts without charm as the neighborhood is very dirty. There is nothing to commend the area.
On the good side, taking Metro #4 from 2 blocks away takes you to any part of Paris. I was comfortable going to stop Chateau Rouge (little Africa), which is closest. Since I have been to Paris twice before, I wanted to experience living in Montmartre. Studio 8 did not provide the opportunity.
