As we walked up the street to the apartment, we worried that perhaps we were in a bad neighbourhood. All the windows have bars on them, graffiti in front of the apartment, and even going into the apartment there is an iron gate to get through to the apartment after you enter the building! Once inside though, the apartment was very clean, very well equipped and comfortable. There is a nice patio, that we didn’t use due to rain but is a lovely aspect of the apartment.
The neighbourhood is very centre and we walked everywhere. We did feel a little uncomfortable in the Capucins March area after dark but this has no reflexion on Helene’s home. We would recommend this suite to a couple for sure.
