Isabelle and Bruno were warm and welcoming. They went out of their way to allow us to arrive early for check-in after a long flight with our young boys (ages 4 and 6)! The apartment is situated in a very nice area of Paris. We enjoyed the play area just across the street and the boulangerie around the corner. We had access to everything we needed in the house, including the offer to use tea, coffee, condiments, and other items in the fridge. Isabelle also offered games and toys for our boys to play with (she is a teacher of young children!) which was generous. There was a lift which fit our folded stroller and bags, a nice break from the stairs. Despite unseasonably warm weather, the apartment stayed cooler inside than out. We did have a bit of trouble sleeping at night as we are accustomed to air conditioning and the noise/mosquitos that came with open windows (and no screens) were a bit of a nuisance. However, I believe this is the norm in Paris! This a lovely, child friendly space in a nice location. A very good value!
