Montmarte is a special place in Paris. From the bed, one can see beautiful Sacre Coeur. Through the window, in the distance is the Eiffel Tower, which lights up at night and reminds one of a lighthouse (The light makes one revolution every 30 seconds). There are delightful things to discover, like the turntable next to the bed and a collection of french records. The space itself is rather cozy, typical of old Paris-- but there is an elevator and a whole city to explore. If you bring a lot of luggage, count on "living out of your suitcases" during your stay. The apartment is a perfect size for singles, perfect for Lovers, and generally too small for a bigger family. Many cafes, bars and restaurants are nearby as well as several markets. At the bottom of the street are several large fabric stores, offering material and designs to the public at great prices. The real attraction, of course, is Sacre Coeur and the beautiful parks surrounding it. Behind the church is a delightful area full of great restaurants, shops and artists willing to draw your likeness for posterity's sake. Astrid, the host, is wonderful. Upon hearing I locked my keys in the flat, Astrid dropped everything and let me back in the house. I have No complaints about anything during my stay.
