We stayed at David's apartment to explore Paris over a long weekend. The location is fantastic, an easy walk from Gare du Nord even with a suitcase. There are plenty of restaurants/bars/cafe's, shops and places to explore nearby in South Pigalle and Montmartre. The obvious one is the Sacre Coeur, about a 5 minute walk, but be sure to explore the back streets for some great hidden treats. The closest Metro Station is a minute from your door, with many more a little further, as well as bus stations and bike shares. The place itself is a beautiful old school Parisian apartment, nicely decorated and with all the modern conveniences you'd expect. David was great throughout the whole experience, and I don't hesitate to recommend staying here when visiting Paris. We certainly will be again.
