Jo was there to meet when we arrived and gave us a run down of the apartment and facilities. She was very warm and welcoming.
The apartment itself is lovely, and is just as described, the photograph is exactly how the living area looks. It was very clean and well appointed. It is in a great location just off the Place de la Republique and a stone's throw from a Metro station with links which means you can get to anywhere in Paris very quickly. Also there is a good supermarket just along the street, and a variety of bars/restaurants nearby.
The apartment is on the second floor with no lift, so if you have mobility difficulties it may not be for you, but my daughter and myself had no problems. It can be a bit noisy at night, the French police aren't shy with the sirens, but the location more than makes up for this.
We had a wonderful time in Paris and would certainly recommend the apartment and I would certainly consider renting again in the future.
