This apartment is quirky but has a lot of character and was nice to stay in. It is in a vibrant, colourful and multi-ethnic neighbourhood with the advantage of having a smaller tourist presence than Le Marais, and yet is very conveniently located near Le Marais, Place République, Canal St-Martin and the Marché Montorgueil (all within walking distance). Metro Strasbourg-St-Denis is literally around the corner as well. I highly recommend this location. Also, the host, Olivier, was friendly and flexible with the check-in time which I greatly appreciated.
