We had a lovely time in a warm and sunny Paris (30°C) in Jean's lovely apartment. Mind yourself it takes 96 steps to go up and down, but the really airy apartment with full commodities is tastefully decorated and pleasant to stay. Opening the windows in the front and back let in the fresh breeze in the evening, night and morning. A wonderful view towards the Sacre Coeur, located at walking distance (25min with luggage) to the North Railway station, or only 3min to Metro station Chateau Rouge e.g. line 4. Lively and colorfull neigbourhood with a mondial atmosphere. Go and explore the Canal St Martin area with open air activities (beachy style on the borders for adults and children), the markets with food or brocantes, or go and see the highlights in 'the Cité'.
