Great, safe neighborhood and less than a 5 minute walk to three different metro lines. Close to many great restaurants and boulangeries, and a short walk to rue Oberkampf which has everything you could need. This is not a touristy area, it is very authentic and has a very vibrant nightlife scene.
The apartment is a basic efficient accommodation, has an elevator which comes in handy after a long day, and faces a courtyard so noise is minimal. Building is secure.
Host communication is very quick, efficient, and friendly.
Overall a good experience.
