A very convenient place to stay. Only 5 minutes from Gare du Nord or Gare de l'Est and Poissoniere Metro is right on the doorstep. It is a very secure block of flats at the top of a commercial building with a lift. There is everything you want including very good internet connection but cooking facilities are limited to a couple of hotplates and a microwave. There are no glasses and cups and plates are a bit of a mixture but adeqaute. Great view from the windows. It is a very small room though and really not enough space to stay comfortably for more than a couple of days. For me the biggest downside was that the woman who has the room closest to the entrance door smokes with her door open even though there is a sign saying smoking is not permitted in the corridor. Technically she isn't smoking in the corridor but the smoke lingers in the corridor.
