This is a marvelous apartment. We are used to home stays and we always look for self-catering so this was perfect for two. It was very conveniently situated for getting around Paris with a metro station right around the corner, but also very walkable. The surrounding blocks and streets are charming and the street itself is well-lit and active at night. The apartment itself is comfortable and exceptionally quiet. Rue Montorgueil is a 10-minute walk and there are cafes and restaurants and markets in every direction. Our hosts were in touch before we arrived, greeted us when came to the apartment, and checked in with us (via text) during our visit. We hardly have any French and language wasn't an obstacle - we both made do with google translate and big gestures. Their tips about the neighbourhood were perfect. We would definitely stay again in the future.
