A spacious apartment artistically decorated located in a fairly quiet street but only a 5 minute walk from the busy shopping/restaurants/cafes area of Bastille, very close to 2 metro stations. The property has a very well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds with 2 bathrooms (one shower with hot water and the other lukewarm water). The property is on the 3rd floor and the building has no lift which requires a physical effort upon arrival and departure with the luggage. The host was extremely pleasant with effective communication. The apartment was recently inhabited by its owners so you get the feeling that you are moving into someone elses apartment - this gives the place more character but at the same time can make tenants feel uneasy. In my case it was fine and I would definitively stay at this place again should I return to Paris.
