The apartment is extremely well located, with all the Bastille and Marais have to offer and only steps to an entrance to the Bastille Metro station.
The area is generally buzzing, so its just as well the double-glazed windows do such a fabulous job, especially at night. Not only is the Bastille Market on your doorstep (Thur & Sun), but there's a huge variety of shops, cafes and markets nearby.
The apartment itself is now a bit more "care-worn" that it appears in the photos, and there were a few outstanding repairs to be made while we were there, but nothing that prevented us from having a fabulous time. After a day exploring Paris, the large bathroom (and separate toilet) were greatly appreciated. Don't be put off by the entrance way and staircase either - the apartment is a higher standard than first impressions might lead you to believe.
