The check in was very easy and painless. Apartment was clean and very nice, well stocked with everything we needed! The best part of the apartment was the amazing location. It was within walking distance to Gare du nord, tons of restaurants, bakeries and cafes. Extremely picturesque Parisian neighborhood. If you're up for it, it's only a 25 minute walk to the louvre and la siene. Perfect home base to explore Paris. Highly recommend!
