Great part of Paris for a relaxing holiday. Lots of tourists during the day but the Parisians seem to come out at night. The place is on a quiet street, but plenty of cafes close by. Au marche de la butte is the closest shop and the closest metro station is Abbesses. The area is beautiful, very hilly with cobblestones. If you have trouble walking up and down hills, I would think twice. The location is about 20 minutes from all the sites by metro, which is close if you're a big city person. But for us hanging around Montmartre was one of the best parts of our trip. The flat itself is tiny but has everything you would need, fairly clean, no trouble sleeping at night. Located in a quiet residential building. We didn't meet the host in person but the check-in and out went relatively smoothly. Speedy response to my queries.
