This apartment is very close to the metro/train. There were lots of cafes and grocery stores within walking distance and a nice canal with restaurants to eat at. It's also easy to get to the tourist attractions you'd want to see either by walking, metro, taxi or the bus. I found it very easy to get around and was safe to walk around at night. Nicolas provided me with all the details I needed before my arrival, which was great. He also gave many great tips when we arrived. This made my trip to Paris very easy!
