An AirBnB host could not possibly be more hospitable than Teresa. Before checking in, she was very responsive to questions. When I arrived in the apartment, I discovered the refrigerator was stocked with some food essentials, all of the instructions for using appliances had been left out, and there were signs all around the apartment providing helpful orientation and welcoming me. Her kids even drew a welcome sign! Their neighbor helped me with check in and was wonderful. The listing description was very accurate, and the apartment is even more beautiful and spacious than what's shown in the pictures. The neighborhood is wonderful; the apartment is on the Boulevard St. Germain, which is of course one of the nicest areas of Paris. It is located close to Jussieu (which was great since I had a work meeting there) and a number of RER and Metro stops. It is <10 minutes to Notre Dame and there are abundant boulangeries, cafes, and restaurants close by, but feels very residential and non-touristy. The apartment is on the 4th floor with no elevator and faces a busy street, but no street noise was discernible with the windows closed. Neighbors were quiet. The host provided me with a fan to keep cool in the warm Paris weather. The apartment was spotlessly clean. I loved staying in this apartment and would relish the opportunity to do so again in the future.
