My girlfriend and I had a wonderful week in Antoine's studio. The property is very well located and is only a 30 minute walk into town. If you don't want to walk that long, you can take the metro from Place Republic or from the train station Est to the center of Paris very quickly. We would recommend walking, because on the way you walk through very beautiful streets which give you this special French flair. The apartment was very clean and is equipped with all everyday items. The contact with Antoine was also very good. He is a very courteous innkeeper and gave us tips for our stay. He also enabled us to check in earlier and check out later so that we didn't have to wait on arrival and departure. All round highly recommended and we would definitely come back.
