Marie's apartment is quite nice - a little on the small side but nothing that isn't clear from the pictures. The location is good - if you like things a bit lively the square that it overlooks is generally quite busy and interesting (although if you like peace and quiet, it probably isn't ideal as the square is busy until quite late at night). Access to the rest of Paris is great - the apartment is directly over Republique station, which is a hub for many Metro lines. Marie is very responsive as a host, and we definitely enjoyed our time in the apartment.
