The apartment is a beautifully designed renovation with a well-outfitted kitchen and modern bathrooms. Olivier was a good host, and actually stopped by shortly after we arrived to see if everything was OK. The windows open onto the courtyard, so there is no street noise from the busy rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine. Public transportation was convenient for both buses and métro. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, especially on the street behind the building. The beds were comfortable, and the up-to-date bathrooms were well designed. We would definitely stay there again.
