We felt very welcome at Nathalie's place, where we had everything we needed: comfortable beds, stove, cooker, coffee machine, large kitchen with table for our breakfast, internet access, etc... Besides all this, the appartment was very warm, and the area quiet. We had everything at our reach: supermarkets, boulangerie, restaurants and metro station at 2 minutes' walk, the canal and La Villete parc at another 10 minutes' walk. So.... perfect! The area seemed safe and walking along the canal is just wonderful :)
