The place was clean and was prepared for 3 people just as I had asked. The fans available came in handy for the warm weather. Easy to access and wifi worked well. It was handy having a washer machine.

We had a great time here. 2 adults and a teen. The flat had all necessary conveniences and was clean and comfortable. Do not be fooled by the stairs leading to it. Rue St-Denis is an excellent launchpad for walking around arrondissements 1 thru 4. Very enjoyable.

If you are young, a foodie and want to experience the night scene of Paris, then this is a wonderful location. If you are a family with young children, then you may want to find a quieter location. This little apartment faces a busy street with cafes and brasseries where locals and tourists like to hangout during the evening. Thus it can get quite noisy at night time with lots of cigarette smokes if you open the balcony doors at night. This little apartment needs a little bit of TLC. The futon in the bedroom is nice and firm. The sofa bed is a bit uncomfortable.The apartment was clean and tidy upon arrival with everything you need for a short stay. Communication/ instructions about how to enter the apartment were efficient and easy to follow.Other than some repairs, it is in a great location, with easy access to metro Lines 4, 8, 9, close to Gare de l'Est, Gare du Nord, and Chatelet les Halles. It is walking distance to many fantastic eateries, such as Brasserie Dubillot (a lineup every night), Boulangerie du Sentier (a friendly local boulangerie), Frenchie (1 Michelin star restaurant), Comptoir del Gastronomie, Rue Montorgueil, Passages, Rue St-Denis, Song Heng (Pho - lineup everyday), les enfants du marche (one of the places that Anthony Bourdain visited), Dunes Blanches, just to name a few. As it is in 2nd Arr., you can almost walk to many attractions such as Musee du Louvre, Notre Dame, Sainte Chapelle, le Centre Pompidou, Bourse de Commerce, the Latin Quarters.
