This is a bright, spacious apartment by Paris standard. Location is convenient n within walking distance to Gare du Nord station. I was initially affected by all the reviews that it’s not a safe neighborhood for tourists but being Asian and having stayed there for 4days, it’s really not as unsafe nor dangerous as depicted ... it’s just mainly populated by middle eastern people whom we have found to be friendly and helpful during our stay. However there are stairs leading to this apartment so may not be easily accessible for some visitors.
