My friend and I stayed at Ode's apartment for 8 nights. Although we didn't have the chance to meet Ode in person, communication is great and her friend Joanna who showed us the apartment was helpful and friendly.We had a great time there, the location is wonderful, about 4-5 mins walk to République station with a lot of restaurants, cafe, supermarkets nearby. Centre Georges-Pompidou and Musée du Louvre are in walking distance.The building was under some staircase renovation work, (which should be finished pretty soon) and there was some noise from street occasionally at night during weekends, but the flat itself is spacious, clean and well equipped. And the washer/dryer is a big plus for travellers. Overall, it's a great place to stay in Paris!! Recommended!
