Claire gave us the feeling to be very welcome! She welcomed us with strawberries, cookies, olives and a rosé on the table and in the fridge with some milk, butter and salmon! Communication with her was always pleasant and straightforward. She speaks English. Claire took lovingly care for us to have a great stay in her apartment and let us know she would be contactable in any case of questions or emergencies.

Claire's apartment was exactly as expected from the Airbnb description and its photos.
In reality it felt very sunny and airy due to the many windows to the broad boulevard, thus even with six persons there was enough space for us. The apartment is furnished authentically. Nothing was missing and everything was pleasantly cleaned. We received three keys, so we were independant from each other in the group.

Directly located to a metro station that is only two stations away from Republique it is easy to travel into each direction.
On Tuesdays and Fridays there is a big market in the middle of the Boulevard. Though the Boulevard is quite alive, the windows are isolated astonishingly well and keep the rooms quiet. We felt safe and comfortable in the neighbourhood. Close to Belleville there is the Canal St. Martin, the Parc de Belleville, the cemetary Père Lachaise with many buried famous personalities. The especially beautiful quartier Marais and the quartier Bastille with its night life begin almost nearby.

I can recommend Claire's apartment as we had a great time there for five days and nights.
