This apartment is just off the Place de Republique, in the great 3rd arrondisement. The metro is close by, and many attractions/neighborhoods are within a 20 minute walk - the Marais, Canal St. Martin, Pompidou Centre. The apartment looks exactly as shown - good wi fi, very well equipped kitchen, very clean and comfortable. There is some street noise, but the bedroom is in the rear of the flat so the noise is not noticeable at night. Check in time was flexible and Jo was there to meet me and show me the flat. Communication with Anna and Guillaume was excellent. I have stayed in the neighborhood several times and highly recommend this flat as a home base in Paris. Don't miss shopping along the neighborhood streets (Charlot, Temple, Saintonge, Bretagne, Archives), the great Boulanger on Rue Saintonge, shops and cafes near the Canal St. Martin, a great steak restaurant - Aller Retour, the nice cafe Lily of the Valley around the corner. The location is perfect for exploring Paris!
