Mathilde was a wonderful host - highly recommended! She's responsive, accommodating, and reasonable. The apartment is conveniently located between two metro stops, within 15-20 mins walking distance to Gare du Nord, as well as a number of popular sights and shopping (Galerie Lafayette); it is on the quieter end of a bustling street. The private room is equipped with everything you may need, spacious for up to two people, has lots of natural sun.
