This apartment is exactly as seen in the pictures, very light with a great view over the canal. There's everything you might need for a long or short stay. The elevator is usefull as many Parisian buildings are 'walk-ups'. Jaques was very helpful with local/insider info for restaurants and culture and there are also some great guide books inside the apartment. There are a few good local cafes and restaurants and the area is close to some of the new hipper neighbourhoods. Transport connections are good with a metro entrance right outside the front door and access to several lines very close by. All communication and arrangements with Jaques were really easy and made this a great and uncomplicated airbnb experience.
