The apartment is in a great location, very convenient to both République and Oberkampf metro stations, both less than a 5 minute walk . These 2 stations can get you anywhere you need to go in Paris. The apartment is comfortable and well appointed for cooking and there are dozens of restaurants in the area to choose from. Having a washing machine to do laundry was a bonus. The temperature while we were in town was in the 80’s, we opened the windows and had a lovely breeze through the apartment at night. There is some street noise (particularly Friday and Saturday night) but this is normal for the city, not something you can really escape, so recommend that you come prepared with ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. The elevator was also very appreciated, making coming and going to the apartment much easier. A Covid test for travel was easy to obtain from the pharmacy on Rue de Temple just across from the République metro stop, with results in 15 minutes. All in all, was a perfect spot to see the city and would happily stay again.
