Lovely two story loft with 5 bedrooms, filled with wonderful, exotic art and objects from around the world. Yes, there are 5 flights of stairs, but since the place was so great to return to, we didn’t mind at all. There are 2 bathrooms and a well-stocked kitchen. The neighborhood near the Bastille felt very un-touristy to us, especially when we went further into the city center and saw all of the tourists there. We enjoyed eating at several restaurants in the area, and brought home pizza from Mio Posto two doors away. I would just advise future travelers to heed the warnings about pickpockets. My daughter had her phone and some credit cards stolen the first morning we were there at a street market. Fabulous place to stay in Paris!
