The apartment is very well located with a metro station right opposite, a small supermarket very close by as well as 2 boulangeries. It is an old style, very charming apartment on the 5th floor. Luckily there is a miniature elevator. We enjoyed having drinks on the wrap around balcony. The kitchen is great and has everything you need to cook meals. We also used the washing machine, which was simple to operate. We really enjoyed eating out on Rue Oberkampf, as well as at the Bastille area. We also enjoyed the local markets. Thanks Nicolas.
