Gwendal’s rooftop flat on the Canal Saint-Martin was fabulous and I would highly recommend to anyone who doesn’t require special access. The flight is bright and airy and really cleverly converted with loads of hidden cupboards everywhere. Gwendal has put together a really comprehensive guide to the flat’s use and the neighbourhood and I would recommend you check through it as it explains all the beautifully described quirks (like how to get the kitchen tap to run & make sure you don’t switch the master light switch off!). Gwendal was super helpful and very responsive. The neighbourhood is the best with great shops, restaurants & access to stations & through ways to the Marais, Belleville or Montmartre. Always lively without being noisy. I would definitely stay in the flat again with family or friends.
