Dominique was an awesome host. He came to pick us up at La Chappele station as we got confused and took a wrong turn. We must have bombarded him with a couple of hundred questions, and he answered them all patiently. The apartment was as described; very clean, comfortable and thoughtful.
The area has a lot of choice and variety within walking distance, and you have a great view of the Eiffel from the 7th floor apartment (with lift).
