It has an elevator and all the amenities a traveller could be looking for. The living room holds a convertible sofa, which can sleep two people, a LCD television, and a large dining table.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a traditional and a microwave oven, a four burner stove, a refrigerator, and a dishwasher. The bathroom includes a combined tub/shower and a washer/dryer. The bedroom has a hotel quality queen size bed (160*200 cm or 64*80 inches). the apartment is fully air conditionned.

The apartment comes with free phone to 100 countries including North America and Australia, free WIFi, and free cable TV.

The location is very convenient to explore Paris. It is on the northern edge of Le Marais. The nearest metro station is Filles du Calvaire on line 8. Republique, which is a main metro hub with direct access to lines 3, 5, 8, 9 and 11, is only 5 minutes away. Since Republique has so many metro lines, you can basically go anywhere in Paris directly with no metro change. As an example, the Eiffel Tower, which is on the other side of Paris, is only twenty minutes away with line 9. And you can also walk to very center of Paris, Le Châtelet, in 15 minutes.
The area is safe and residential. The oldest Paris open-air market, Le Marché des Enfants Rouges, which is open daily except on Mondays, is two blocks away.
There is a wide range of restaurants and a number of supermarkets in the immediate neighborhood and the trendy Rue de Bretagne is at your doorstep.

114 Rue Amelot
The apartment is quite large for a Paris apartment and has a/c which is rare there. It has a great location between Place de Bastille & Place de Republic; 50 meters from a metro station; two blocks from a super market. There are alot of restaurants in the near neighborhood. The kitchen though small is nicely equiped with pots and pans and utensils. There is even a dishwasher. My only criticism is that the morning light floods the bedroom at 5am. The apartment could use shades or dark curtains in there. The manager Olivier is very responsive to questions and or problems.
Hip location - great Paris base - fabulous bed!
This apartment had everything we needed for a brief stay in Paris in a perfect location on the edge of the 3rd and 11th arrondisements, close to the Metro and really great buses across Paris. Just off the busy Blvd du Temple, the rue Amelot is quieter, and close to every groovy cocktail bar we love: The Clown Bar downstairs, Le Mary Celeste and Pas de Loup nearby. Don’t miss your morning croissant and baguette from Du Pain, down the block. There is a Carrefour a block away, an ATM across the road, and the wonderful covered market, the Marché des Enfants Rouges, about a 10 minute walk away, with a fabulous Moroccan food stall. The apartment was spacious for two people, with sweet Paris rooftop views from the 5th floor windows and balcony AND an elevator to get up to the apartment. As we had to open our laptop for a bit of work the strong wifi was great, as were free phone calls to the US, and the big dining room table to work on. The living room was spartan, but met our needs and the big French door windows in every room provided great light. One warning: tall people watch your head in the toilet stall. The heating in each room was easy to operate and made our early Spring mornings very cosy. And then there was the bed. Truly, this is the best bed in any Paris apartment, hands down. Still dreaming about that bed, with the view across Paris from the windows.
Good location for a longer visit
I stayed in this apartment for a month. It provided a great home base for exploring Paris. It was very easy to get around via the metro or bus, plus there were lots of sights (ex. Place des Vosges, Pere La Chaise cemetery, Marche des Enfants) and amenities within walking distance. This is not a high end, touristy neighbourhood so you feel like you are living among regular Parisians, which I enjoyed. The restaurant recommendations provided by the manager upon arrival are good, esp. Le Centenaire on the corner. The bars that are on the ground floor of the building generate a bit of noise at night but it cannot be heard from the bedroom. It is just the noise of conversation, not rowdy. There is an open air market nearby on Blvd Richard Lenoir (on Sundays plus other days) that is a must. It provides a huge selection of produce, fish, meats, cheese, and baked goods. There is also a Carrefour supermarket two blocks away and it has everything you might need.
The apartment is large and bright. It gets both morning and afternoon sun. It has all the amenities/appliances that are in the listing description. The building is old and this shows on the walls, stairs, etc. but the apartment itself was clean. Some of the furniture is a bit worn (such as the balcony chairs). I had a complaint when I first arrived and it was dealt with very promptly and satisfactorily by the property manager. I had guests staying in the living room and there was plenty of room for them and their suitcases. Having the toilet in a separate room from the shower/bath was useful when there were three of us getting ready in the morning. The dining room table easily seats six. In addition, the WIFI was very reliable. I did not use the air conditioning but there are units in both the living room and the bedroom. There are also radiators in each room. I use the bedroom one and it worked fine.
Comfortable apartment in great neighborhood
I stayed here for three weeks in January. I love this neighborhood, very much is walkable and the Metro station is right outside the door. The apartment itself felt spacious, and has a nice little balcony that overlooks a pleasant square. There are loads of great, trendy restaurants nearby, including the Clown Bar, right downstairs.
The bed is extremely comfortable, and if you can manage to catch the sunrise, it is spectacular from the bedroom window, which faces east and overlooks the rooftops of Paris. Every convenience to live was provided -- including a salad spinner! Overall, the apartment was bright and cheerful.
If I were to complain about anything, it would be that the salon furniture could use an update. The chairs are really not very comfortable, and the couch is servicable but getting a little shabby. Also, it was a huge convenience to have the washer/dryer combo, which worked well, but it is located a bit inconveniently in a bathroom closet, and is a little difficult to access.
That said, the TV and WiFi worked great, and I loved that I could make free calls to the U.S. -- specially helpful because I was in Paris for work.
Overall, I'd recommend -- especially for the location, the bedroom, and the balcony.
Attractive, quiet & well-appointed apartment located in a cute neighborhood w/ Public transport.
My mother and I rented this apartment for a two week stay. We always felt safe, had AC & wifi and loved this neighborhood. Shopping & restaurants nearby, walking distance to La Marais we had all the comforts of home while being in a spacious apartment. Everyone was friendly & helpful, would rent this property again.
Fantastic location, great place to stay! Difficult to park a car..
Everything was exactly as in the description. Property was prepared, clean and very well-maintained. You will definitely like this place the moment you walk in.
Even though we didn't meet Olivier who manages the property (he was on vacation), the customer service we experienced was superb - we had a great introduction to the place and after that we didn't need anything at all. I believe that sums it up - you can just walk in straight from the street and you can enjoy your stay in Paris, hassle-free.
We were staying there for two days as a group of 4 adults. We had high expectations, but what we got was even beyond what we thought we would have. Everyone was happy that we chose this place to enjoy Paris during the EURO 2016. I, personally, enjoyed the view from the balcony (in the morning and evening) the most! The area the property is located in is very clean, safe and not as loud as you would think (when you consider the fact that on the ground floor of the building there is many restaurants and cafes).
Metro station is literally steps away from the entrance to the building. If you want to, you can see Notre-Dame, Louvre and other landmarks by casually walking to these places (we did, and enjoyed it a lot). There is no need to use the public transport. Everything is in the reasonable proximity. I recommend that you try tiramisu in Metro Cafe near Bataclan that is a few minutes of walking from the property.
PLEASE BEAR IN MIND that it is very difficult to park a car in this area. It is possible, of course (we did), but if you can it is better if you don't come by car.
I would recommend this property to everybody! When we visit Paris again, I will definitely contact Olivier in the first place to try to book this property again.
Thank you for such pleasant stay.
