We had a large group for two weeks in this beautiful and large apartment, which is in an excellent location just a block from the Place de la Republique, on a posh street. A reasonable 15 minute walk from Gare de Nord and Gare de L'este. The metro is much closer. Around the corner is the canal, with cafes and bars, and around the other corner are some of the coolest bars and stores. There are four bedrooms, each with sleeping spaces for 2, but most are double beds. The only problem we had was the water heater sometimes went off, and we had to share 2 keys for 10 people. But this is a great place to stay in Paris.
