Great location, just a block from the canal and a few blocks from 2 metro stations including Republique which has direct access to many train lines. Easy walking distance to le Marais, Republique, Belleville and spots in the 1st. 4th floor 1 BR apt in a 5 floor building so extremely bright with natural sunlight and plenty of windows, in living room, kitchen and bedroom. Can't neglect to mention the full bathtub in bathroom in a city where many units have small square cubicles for showers. Full kitchen with plates, cups, utensils etc although we didn't really take advantage of cooking there. And, of course, it's just around the block from possibly my favorite patisserie in the city: du pain et des idees - no better way to start a morning! (note they are closed on wknds) One caution is that there's no elevator access so if one in your party has physical limitations it might not be the ideal fit. Hosts Lea, Oonagh and Matt were very friendly, super responsive and extremely accommodating in allowing us to drop our bags early on day of arrival and leave them in unit after checkout until departing for airport in the afternoon. Much appreciated! Would definitely stay there again!
