As it is vacation season in essentially all of Europe, checking in was more difficult than normal. However, Jennifer was extremely helpful through the entire process and her son was also extremely pleasant. The place is as described and the bed was extremely comfortable. The location was very central; right beside the Republique subway station, a really interesting neighbourhood in itself but also very close to Marais and many of the tourist attractions (Notre Dam) - we mostly walked around unless we were exhausted. Would stay here again!
