Part of a former baking tray factory, some of its walls have been left unpainted as a nod to the space's industrial past. At the same time, polished concrete floors bring a touch of modern sophistication alongside the otherwise bohemian style interiors. Nestled on the ground floor within a quiet private courtyard shared by other residents in the building, the apartment manages to feel spacious despite its small footprint. Set within a lively neighbourhood and close to Canal Saint-Martin, it provides an authentic taste of a less touristy part of town. As a result, it's an ideal spot to explore Paris from, as it conveniently connects guests to the Parisian cafe culture, shopping districts and landmarks in no more than fifteen minutes. A stay here is undoubtedly a lesson in small space living, yet a solo traveller or a couple will find it perfectly equipped for a comfortable stay.
