The apartment has practically everything you' need for your stay. There are so many convenience shops around you that stay open late and open early that you don't need to bring anything with you. In all honesty I can't say it's a quiet area either from the streets (part of the price you pay for having everything convenient) but also internal noise from the apartment above. However, it is a very covenient place to visit Paris with the Metro nearby and everything you need at hand.
