Luis' home is extremely well placed for exploring Paris, and is in easy walking distance of the Gare du Nord, Metro station, and The Sacre Coeur church. The apartment itself is homely and clean rather than stylish. It has all the amenities you may expect. This made it easy to relax in. The door entry system is via a wooden door and inner gate, leading to a small courtyard, accessed by 2 keypads. This meant that inside we felt very safe. The flat was on the second floor and is compact and in a traditional style. We were met by a friendly lady who showed us where everything was and made sure we were satisfied. She left her number in case we needed further assistance. Luis had left adaptors for phones and plugs which was appreciated, as well as telephone numbers for local assistance.
