This place is much nicer than the photos indicate! We have been to Paris a number of times this year and by far this was our favorite!! The garden area is quite charming. It feels very safe and relaxed. The apartment is cute and very clean. We also love the neighborhood. Belleville is a place where people really live. It isn't as touristy as other neighborhoods. This place is a close walk to the subway and many grocery stores, cafes, bakeries, etc. There was a splendid little kitchen area and they had thoughtfully put some mint water to chill in the refrigerator. It was also cooler during the Parisian heatwave than other places I've stayed. The only thing is that if you need a lot of WiFi it is a limited amount so you can only check email, etc. so if you really need to stream videos and whatnot you should stay elsewhere, but I would live at this tiny house in a heartbeat! So charming!
