This is a very nice place. Do not be fooled by the busy neighborhood, because this apartment is actually located in an oasis of calm in the back of a courtyard. It's ideal for visiting Paris with children: there is a lot of nice toys, a chair, a cot, etc.. It is also the ideal home for people who love beautiful things: art books, magazines, movies, DVDs, etc, .. Violetta is a very lovely hostess and makes you feel at home immediately. The apartment is located close to Canal St Martin, where many trendy and cool shops, cafes and restaurants are located.
