Between the 5 people I stayed with and me, we all loved Nathalie's place. If you want a wonderful arrondissement to stay in Paris, Republique is truly a gem. We felt safe and everything we needed was within walking distance. The actual interior was beautiful as well, just make sure you're okay with climbing many flights of stairs! None of us minded it at all --we needed it after eating a massive amount of carbs anyways haha. The beds were comfortable and all the amenities were exactly as expected. Gorgeous kitchen to cook in and wonderful windows with a ton of natural light in the apartment. I'd definitely book with Nathalie again if I had a party of 6 in Paris.
