This is a great place to stay! If you think the place looks good in the pics, it’s even better in real life. It’s particularly good for longer stays (I was there for a month) as it’s spacious and has a washing machine. It’s in a really nice building and looks into a pretty courtyard. It’s super close to a tube stop - I had no problem getting to Montparnasse each day for my language course. As for the Batignolles neighbourhood, I think it’s one of Paris’s best kept secrets. There are so many great bars, cafes, restaurants, boulangeries, wine shops, the list is endless. And there’s even an indoor market near the apartment - you can’t go wrong!! Would highly recommend!
