My husband and I stayed here during our stay in Paris. The apartment is actually quite spacious, much bigger than it looks in photos- we were pleasantly surprised! The apartment had everything we needed, not to mention a rare elevator for my heavy suitcase! It's located in the Bastille area, which is very close to so many restaurants, Marais neighbourhood, and the best baguette bakery just outside. But yes, it is definitely in a happenin' area with lots of nightlife. That being said, we had no issues as it's quite manageable with windows closed! 10/10 recommend for young couples looking for a spacious place to stay in a great neighbourhood!
