The apartment is lovely and appears newly renovated. We found the beds to be comfortable and the linens of high quality.
The location was excellent with the Republique metro stop about 30 feet from the front door.
We also heard from two Parisians that this is one of the up and coming areas in Paris! (Although we did not have the chance to explore to verify this). :)
The one small downside to the apartment is that we could hear the metro at night—-even though we were on the third floor. This did not bother my husband at all, but woke me up on occasion. Earplugs did help.
Overall, it was an excellent apartment and we enjoyed our time there!
