The apartment is truly gorgeous - a huge open plan space, great bedrooms in boxes in the space and lovely furniture. Our 5 year old loved the toys and both kids liked it as much as we did. It slept me, my wife, my parents and our 2 kids happily. You enter through a lovely leafy courtyard and you're right in the centre of a great part of Bastille. Rue de Charonne's a great street full of boutique shops, bars, cafes and restaurants. Afoul out, the host, was charming and helpful. Nab it if you can.
