Great place to stay near Republique, Canal Saint Martin, and all the new style restaurants and bistros in the 11th. Very walkable, less than a block from metro. Velib available within steps of the door. Active street, but double or triple paved windows cut so much noise I could barely believe it. Never had any issues with noise (even when France beat England). Emmanuel is supremely professional and available as a host, though except a small issue shortly after check-in that he resolved within the hour, there was never any other issues to resolve! But his communication is excellent and he’s eager to assist. Check-in/out were trouble free. Overall, highly recommended.
