We loved this apartment! It was decorated so well. A highlight for us was listening to one of the cd's that was in the cd player by a French artist named Serge Gainsbourg while listening to the noises of the street below, windows opened. The whole atmosphere was great and it gave us a taste of what life in Paris is like. There was a grocery store just 2-3 blocks away and a bakery just doors down. We enjoyed many of their baguettes with cheese and ham from the grocery store. We stayed here 4 full days and I wish we could have stayed longer. Benoit was great about communicating with us quickly when we messaged him with questions. We enjoyed the diversity of neighborhood. I enjoyed the bright colors and patterns of the African dresses the women wear. It was nice to stay in an area that wasn't full of tourists, since we saw lots of tourists during the day at the sights. We would definitely come back here again.
