This apartment was a great base for our stay in Paris. The apartment was nicely decorated and while a bit sparse, it had most of what we needed for a comfortable stay. The street seemed safe and well lit even late at night. The apartment was quiet at night even though it is a 3 minute walk from République. There is some noise in the evenings from the street and local restaurants but you can’t hear it with the windows closed. It was a 5 minute walk to 5 metro stops which made getting around very easy. It is also close to many things on foot. If you take the stairway passage next to the apartment and walk straight for 10 minutes you are right in the heart of the Marais. The apartment is also very easily connected to the airport so there was no trouble arriving or leaving. Check in was great and we were even able to check in a bit early which was great after a long flight. On our last day we were able to store our bags after check out which was very helpful as well.
