Great little studio apartment in Belleville. Stayed here for a month while I got settled in Paris, and it was a great location to get around the city from. Place de la République is just two stops away, or a short 15 minute walk, with lots of metro connections to get around. Neighborhood is very lively. There is a school nearby where the children seem to be outside all morning so it can get a bit loud. Other than that, the apartment was great. Claire is a great host and very communicative through the reservation and checking in process (i had a lot of questions). Definitely recommend.
