One word - spectacular! This apartment exceeded my expectations. Our host, Nicolas was easy to contact and very responsive. We had been traveling all day and had some issues getting from the train station (Gare du Nord, which is a short car or metro ride away) and he arranged for the cleaner to wait for us (thanks!). She was very sweet, but didn't speak our language. This ended up being a nice surprise, as we were able to "discover" a lot of the apartments features, such as the breathtaking views behind the electric shutters on both sides of the space. The welcome basket was also a fantastic treat. This space was perfect for a couple and 1 child, but would of worked for 2 couples or 2 children just as well. Book with confidence, this is a rare gem: plenty of space, breathtaking views and close to the tower.
