If you are travelling with children or want to be in a friendlier area, I would consider looking at other locations in Paris. As a couple, we were fine but definitely not the most comfortable area (especially as a tourist). Upon our arrival, we were told that we would be able to check-in at 3pm. When we arrived, our room had not yet been cleaned and we had to sit and wait for the cleaner to come in a clean (which took about an hour). The flat definitely looks as pictured - it's a pretty nice place. Just do your research on the area beforehand.
