You'll find this home tucked down a quiet courtyard in buzzy Bastille. An array of cafes, bars, and restaurants are in the local area, so you'll be well-placed to discover the city's culinary scene. Even better is the metro station right down the street, though the famous July Column in Place de la Bastille is a short walk away. Two guests will sleep on a sofa bed here, but we think the living space is relatively roomy. We're fans of the quirky design, too. Just note that it's on the second floor and there isn't a lift.
