This is a beautifully renovated small apartment - you can see that Maciej is an architect. The tiles in the kitchen and bathroom are especially beautiful, but the whole place is designed in great taste. Everything is new and well maintained and the apartment is decidedly uncluttered. Beautiful light and views, quiet at night. Located just minutes from Gare du Nord, either on foot or by metro. The street is vibrant and bursting with life from every continent - those who are not used to urban life might find it a bit edgy but relax - it was definitely not dangerous, and it is infinitely more interesting than the touristy center. I'd stay here again, long- or short-term, in a heartbeat. A great value.
