The apartment was exactly as pictured -- an adorable, stylish place with a comfy bed and a great bathroom and kitchen. Carole was very easy to chat with before I arrived and during my stay, and she checked in to make sure everything was going well.
She also had great recommendations for bakeries, cafes and restaurants in the neighborhood.
I loved that there were two subway stops within walking distance, a Velib bike stand right outside and a the beautiful park Buttes Charmont right next door. Definitely a perfect location if you have events at the Parc de la Villette or you need to be on the northeast side of the city.
