We had a great time in Paris and Christine’s brilliant apartment played a large part in this. It’s in a wonderful location, walking distance to nearby shops and restaurants, as well as the République Metro and a 15-20 minute walk to Gare du Nord.
The apartment, while in a prime location, is tucked away and feels very secure: you go through a street level gate and another gate before entering the building and going up to the front door of the flat. The codes for these all worked perfectly and meant you felt very safe and the apartment was also nice and quiet.
The actual apartment is beautiful. Not huge but really well designed. The kitchen is all very modern and sleek and thoughtful touches like the coffee machine pods, teabags and a fridge stocked with water, milk and juice were lovely.
The bed was comfy and the layout of having the bathroom up a set of steps, with the shower overlooking the bedroom, was fun and unique. One thing I will say is that the boiler is on the small side so aim for quick showers otherwise it takes a while to refill, but the shower itself is great.
Overall I would absolutely stay here again or recommend it to a friend.
