The host family emailed us the directions to the apartment from CDG airport as requested. Even though the check-in time was 3:00 p.m., Rebecca arranged for me to check in at 1:00 p.m. As the host couple were away on a vacation, Rebecca's mother was there to receive us. The apartment was as described. It is located on the 9th floor. Two bedrooms (one with two bunk beds), a living room and a kitchen. There is a small balcony with two chairs and a table. The apartment is close to the Eiffel tower (8 minutes by walk). At night, we sat in the balcony and took in the beauty of the sparkling tower. The tower is also visible from the kitchen window.
The neighborhood is great with multiple cafes and restaurants. We dined at Cafe Suffren a couple of times. Great food. There is a grocery store (called Simply) right next door. The Metro train station is like 5-minutes away. Very convenient.
