Fabien's apartment is awesome. For an apartment in Paris, it is very spacious for what I was used to. Even larger than the pictures would indicate. Location is strong with access to a few metro stops (Place d'Italie, Nationale) and multiple easily accessible grocery stores (Carrefour, Grand Casino, Franprix). Although it is a little out of the way from the major tourist attractions, the view absolutely cannot be beat and it's a relaxing retreat from the bustle of the city.
