This is a beautiful apartment. Lovely antique furniture, charming and relatively spacious.
Great location with convenient access to the Republique Square, the Metro, Le Maris, Gare du Nord, etc.
We should have, and otherwise would have, rated our experience 5 Stars...but are rating our stay as only 4 Stars given the quality of the Housekeeping....which I expect can and will be fixed by the owners.
Our primary complaint with this apartment had to do with the Housekeeping Service. They were careless and didn't pay attention to details that they clearly should have (dishes not cleaned in the dishwasher, no spare toilet paper, etc.). This created some minor inconveniences.
The apartment is away from the noisy bars / restaurants sections of Republique and therefore relatively quiet. The main bedroom is absolutely quiet at night. However, in the outside bedroom (the one adjacent to the main road), you can hear occasional sounds of vehicles zooming by when things quiet down at night. But this should not be an issue for most people.
All said and done, we had a memorable stay...and would certainly consider staying here again.
