Soline's studio is as described. The neighborhood is central to all of the attractions of Montmarte at the very top of the hill. The apartment is well situated with everything you could need and has a cozy, homey feeling for spending time in when relaxing. The only down side here is that since you are in the middle of everything it is a pretty lively neighborhood, with tourists and locals hanging out in the street below the apartment until later in the night. This was not a huge problem for us as things usually quieted down by around 11pm, although some very noisy garbage and other trucks in the neighborhood did wake us up a few mornings so be sure to bring ear plugs! Other reviewers have mentioned that there are quite a few stairs required to arrive to the neighborhood where the apartment is located and this is very true. Depending which metro stop you come into there can be extensive stairs to climb out of the metro as well as up the hill to arrive at the apartment. Be aware that google usually proposes the most direct route with the MOST stairs so check your other options as well, especially if you have luggage. Cabs will take you all the way up the hill or there is a funicular that goes almost all the way to the top (which google doesn't seem to be aware of). There are also some walking routes that will take you up the side of the hill so you are walking up winding streets rather than trekking up tons of stairs with suitcases. Still an uphill climb, but a bit less arduous. Overall a great location in the heart of Montmartre and only steps from Sacre Coeur. We also found some terrific restaurants off of side streets in the area, away from the more crowded areas.
