The place is perfect if you are trying to discover Paris durig a short stay. I was there for 5 days in December going all over the city, and the apartment was very convenient. There are 3 metro stations less than 5 min away- I used all of them, Garre de l'Est is only 1 stop away, which was perfect since I had an early morning train. The street is very animate; several Tabacs and bars, restaurants, there is a bakery and a pharmacy just at the corner of the building, and Carrefour City just around that same corner. At the end of the street is Place de la Republique, 3 min walk, which is an attraction in itself- very beutiful with many restaurants and shops and a metro station.
The room is spacious and well lit with 2 big windows. It was super clean and the heater worked great. Victoria was thoughtful enough to leave an extra duvet and slippers.
The kitchen big and is very well equipped, I cooked almost all my meals there. The toilet and bathroom were always kept very clean and spacious as well.
I also got the chance to meet Victoria and spend some time with her. She is very hospitable, very friendly and generous, with a great sense of humor. She was amazing company.
All in all, I highly recommed the place :)
