The location of the apartment is good if you’re willing to travel a little longer to the centre, it is also close to Gare du Nord. We didn’t feel unsafe in the area and spent a lovely morning at the park very near the apartment.

We hadn’t noted in the listing prior to arriving just how low the ceiling is upstairs (we now feel the photos make the ceiling seem higher). We couldn’t enjoy the space upstairs as we had to crouch. Just keep in mind the stated 130cm floor to ceiling height means that when you are in bed your face is about 40cm from the beam (right side of bed at top of stairs). Having said that, we were able to sleep fairly well but we can imagine some people feeling uncomfortable/claustrophobic.
Adriana was a good host, providing us with treats upon arrival and communicating well.
