I thoroughly enjoyed my stay!

We never met the hosts, but they left very clear instructions for the keys and were very active in replying to our messages and making sure we were ok. This was much appreciated by us.

The view is amazing - as mentioned by many others before - but it truely is. The flat is small, but perfect for us as a couple. We were out and about most of the time and only got back to sleep. The area is lovely and felt very safe. We even slept with balcony door and windows open because of the heat and never felt unsafe. Metrolines are nearby, however we never used them. We either walked (but love walking and had 60 km under our belts after 2 days, so this might not be for everyone) or took a velib (bike rental - which we can very much recommend. You can find them on nearly every street corner and are very easy to use. If you decide to use a velib: be a bit careful on the more busy streets. I'm Dutch and very capable riding a bike, but still nearly got shoved off the road by a city bus clearly not paying attention.)

The area has a lot a facilities (cafe's, bars, bakery) and doesn't feel as 'touristy' as many other areas.
