This apartment is simply adorable. It is exactly as pictured in the photos, except that the photos don't do it entirely justice because they don't let you see just how much light floods into this space during the day. It has two exposures, tons of windows including in the bathroom and kitchen, and it's on the 8th floor, so it practically glows with sunlight on a bright day. This can be a bad thing in a heat wave, and in fact one of the days I stayed there it did get quite hot, but the air conditioner managed to cool the space quite well nevertheless. I'll admit I was concerned when I first arrived to see that the air conditioner was one of those portable machines that has a large tube that goes outside on the balcony. There is no way to shut that balcony door and let the tube go outside at the same time, so it's not energy-efficient at all. However I was happy to discover it wasn't an issue for me (one day the temperature reached 89 degrees Fahrenheit). Another thing you can't tell from the photos is that there is a nice cross-breeze going on in the apartment thanks to the multiple exposures. It's really very pleasant. There is an elevated little nook that you have to climb up into in order to see the great views from inside the apartment, but even for an old lady like me (I'm 49) climbing up there was not hard, and it's a really comfortable and cheerful space. There's also an adorable tiny balcony (nicely decorated with flower pots) with just enough space to sit out there and enjoy a drink, and you get a great view from there as well. Stéphanie was kind enough to leave a bunch of goodies in the fridge (a fresh baguette, cheese, water, chocolate, etc.) and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The bathroom is also very nice: it has plenty of storage space for toiletries, an easy-to-figure-out shower and good water pressure. Also, it does not feel cramped despite its small size. Bed is very comfortable too!
The neighborhood is very tranquil and bourgeois, mainly residential, but you can find fruit/veggie stores, bakeries, cafés and other businesses within a 5-10 min walk. It's a pleasant, attractive and safe part of Paris but definitely not exciting, so travelers who crave being in the middle of the action should keep that in mind. The only negative about this place for me was that I found it slightly inconvenient to get to the center of Paris. It takes about a half hour by metro and you'll almost certainly have to transfer at least once. Still, the metro in Paris is awesome and very reliable, so it was not a big deal.
