In early September 2014, my husband and I enjoyed six nights in Paris, staying at Simo's place near Rue Montorgeuil. We are retired Americans and this was our first trip to France. The apartment looks exactly as portrayed and has all of the furniture, equipment, and extras described on the airbnb website. The bed was comfortable and we had little noise at night so were able to sleep very well in advance of busy days seeing Paris. One thing that really helped was that the elevator was right in the entrance hallway and let us out just in front of our apartment door. My husband had broken his foot shortly before our trip and was using a crutch. So it was a blessing not to have to deal with stairs even though we were on an upper floor. We also were able to use the two nearby Metro stations to reach distant neighborhoods without having to walk all the way.

Simo and his assistant Clement replied quickly to all of our communications from the time of reservation in June until after we left, and were quick to accommodate our questions and needs.
