The very spacious apartment is great for three couples or two families with kids who can share a room. The kitchen and livingroom get plenty of sun. We were just as satisfied to relax in the apartment as we were to explore the different areas of Paris, including the local scene near Republique Square and along the Quay de Valmy - morning walk/jog, weekend street market, great eateries and working canal with its sluice gates and turnstyle overpasses. The Metro was nearby. The host is responsive to any issues that might arise.
