Renting out 2 sperate apartments was really great for traveling companions, and allowed us our own space.
The constant communication using Whatsapp was great.
The fold out bed sofas was very useful. We also loved the keyless lockboxes.
Rue de Abbesses is one street up the hill and this street has a lot of great cafes, restaurants, and boutique shops. There are several metro stations within 5-10 minute walk, that will easily allow you to connect to all over Paris.
Loved our time here and would stay again.
