Za'atar & Spice Paris, Île-de-France

Property Description

Set within the less touristy Goutte d'Or district, this home's interiors are a reflection of the cosmopolitan nature of its surroundings. A home with a cool ethnic vibe and some interesting artwork, we found its cosy living space to be very conducive to relaxing with a good book and a cup of tea given the lack of modern distractions – you certainly won't find a TV here! It's and ideal option for a couple looking for a tranquil refuge within a more authentic locale, while its proximity to a couple of stations also makes it a viable base from which to explore other parts.

Home truths:
* It's on a fourth floor with no lift so get ready for the free workout

* This home has heaps of lived in charm so you should expect to share the space with many of your host's belongings

* There's a somewhat narrow entrance hallway

* Telly-addicts beware: there isn't one here!

* There is not much storage space in the bedroom so be prepared to live out of a suitcase

* The kitchen is compact and on the basic side, with just two hobs

* There is no air conditioning in this home

* The flat is near the Canal St Martin - however, it's not really a touristic location & a really popular neighborhood

*The coffee machine is a filter coffee machine only - no espresso machine
