Nice place. Situated between republique and Strasbourg saint denis metro lines. Quiet street and plenty of things to do. the hostess was not around but her brother and father were in the place to greet us. Her brother sent us some restaurant suggestions to try. Perfectly fine utilities (heat and water) and easy to figure out. Coming from another country, that's important. If you're coming in or out of the apartment at a late hour, make sure to keep quiet as apparently the walls/floors are thin and the tenant downstairs may pay you a visit.
I'd stay again and I'd recommend
