This was a very large, comfortable apartment in a great part of the Marais. Nice to have a small elevator to transport our luggage upstairs to the 2nd floor (third floor American). We were two adult women (50s and 70) attending the French Open tennis championships, so it was terrific having our own full bathrooms. Each of us also did laundry, which worked great.
Our beds were very comfortable. The back bedroom was very quiet away from the street. It has no windows, but my friend liked having a cozy place to sleep. The main bedroom was spacious with room for hanging and storing clothes.
Because Rue Saint-Antoine is a busy street, I could hear the street noise. If you're sensitive to noise, you should stay in the back bedroom. There is also a third bedroom with a crib and small children's bed. On Sundays, you can hear music from the Protestant church next door. It's actually nice music
The kitchen was beautiful with a gorgeous stove, two sinks and a dishwasher. We would reheat leftovers on the stove, since there isn't a microwave or toaster. Plenty of space in the large refrigerator.
The closest metro was the Bastille station, which has three train lines to access various sections of Paris. Plenty of stores and restaurants within a couple of blocks - bakeries, groceries, fresh produce, natural foods, etc. The Noodle Corner makes Asian noodles in-house and you can get them cold, stir-fried or in a soup accompanied by chicken, beef, shrimp and veggies. It's a great place for quick, convenient takeout or dining in.
Sofia, the property manager, made life easy for us. She's a great communicator and responded quickly to WhatsApp texts. We arrived before check-in time and were allowed to drop off our luggage. Sofia gave us an orientation when we returned to check in. She also made checking out a breeze.
I would highly recommend this apartment!
