You will love this apartment. It is stylishly decorated with artworks and furnishings. We stayed for 6 nights in the winter season and were very comfortable. I was able to wash our clothes and it dried easily on a drying rack within the apartment. The bed was super comfy. My daughter enjoyed playing the piano most evenings. Rue de la Roquette is a great location, few minutes walk to Bastille metro. We took the train everyday to all Paris key attractions. Bastille itself is a great location with cafes and restaurants. Highly recommended.
