Maud's apartment is a great place especially for the price. Easy access to multiple metro lines and not far from Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est. The neighborhood itself felt safe and eclectic, but I did not spend much time nearby. The apartment feels very homey, is well decorated, and Maud was a kind and patient host. Edna who welcomed us was also very friendly despite the fact that we were late. 5 stars!
