This apartment was wonderful. Simple yet very charming, with everything one could need. I stayed long-term (1.5 months), and I had no issues with the place. Belleville is one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in Paris, with great food options, close to Canal St. Martin, Parc de Belleville (recommended!), Pere Lachaise, etc. The Belleville Metro is conveniently very close. One final thing I loved about this apartment was the view out of the windows. They face a courtyard with other buildings and windows around, but there are trees and ivy growing on the walls, so when you look out the windows you see lots of greenery and it still feels very private and cozy. Marco, the host, was VERY quick to respond the any questions, and check-in/check-out was very simple.
