We loved Denis' apartment! We instantly felt at home! Everything was very clean and comfortable. Communicating with Denis was a breeze. The apartment is above some stores/restaurants but bc it was in the back of the building we heard no noise which was great. The apartment is a less than 10 minute walk to Republique station which connects to many other lines. Also a 5 minute walk to line 11. Lots of good restaurants and bars to go to around the area as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Paris.
