Yukie's place is in a lively district, just near to the famous rue Oberkampf. The apartment itself is small but perfect for one person, and very clean. The street below is quite noisy but the windows are brilliant - once closed you hardly hear a thing from the street. Yukie herself is very sweet and a lovely host, she was very quick to respond to any of my queries. I had the pleasure of meeting her when I arrived and she told me that she designed the apartment herself, and she has great taste - the apartment is stylishly decorated. I would recommend Yukie's place for a short stay for a solo traveller. It is literally right next to the metro but also just a 25 minute walk into the Marais. Thanks Yukie!
