The apartment looks exactly like in the pictures, very neat, clean, even though the bathroom and shower is tiny but that is not at all unusual for Paris standard. The kitchen was small but we didn't cook anything except for peeling fruits and making coffee, so if you plan on cooking a lot, this could be challenging. I really appreciate Anne-Elodie's love for details, her collection of (probably flea market) silver wares, her love for literature and all thing organic which was visible in her place. For us, having been to Paris already many times and having no need to go see the usual tourist attractions in the city center, the neighborhood around was perfect with many cafes, bio-markets, nice bistros and bars, definitely a nice neighborhood worth checking out. Anne-Elodie was very quick to reply to all of our messages before and during our stay, though we met only once, she seems like a real nice person with great taste, through her I've discovered my new found love for Laffague bags and my husband his love for Dr. Bronner liquid soap ;-)). All in all, a good value for money and a lovely experience in Paris.
