My wife and I spent 7 fabulous nights in Kristin's lovely apartment where we had a great stay. We really liked the area which was safe and close to the metro.

It is no secret that you have to walk up 5 flights of stairs to reach the apartment which is on the 6th floor but it is worth it - even after a long day walking around town. The apartment is very clean and well laid out and just an all around great place to stay while in Paris.

While it may get a little warm in the hot summer months given the fact that it is on the 6th floor, this is nothing that can't be taken care of by the 2 fans in the apartment and by opening the windows during the evening - we had no complaints whatsoever.

While we never met Kristin in person, she was very pleasant to communicate with over email. She was very kind and prompt. She also went out of her way to check in on us via email and provided many recommendations for the area. We went to her recommended bakery, Utopie, every morning and it was awesome. We also walked along the canal every evening.

I can't say enough good things about the apartment and the host, Kristin, and have absolutely no reservations about recommending this apartment.
