Laurents Apartment was an excellent value, both in terms of the space as well and the location, and amenities of Belleville and 11th arrondissement. The metro, at either corner, can take you anywhere you want to go outside that. The Apartment itself has many personal touches and had a relaxed artists aesthetic. It doesn't feel like a curated experience, it feels like staying the weekend at a friends house. It is comfortable, and enjoys nice breezes from off the veranda, which is a good place to people watch and take in some sunshine. I'd book again and recommend it to friends.
