Vu was absolutely awesome! As others have mentioned, Vu met my wife and I at the metro station and showed us around the neighborhood before bringing us to their apartment. Vu was patient with us, even though we were over 30 minutes late meeting him. He even bought us some bottled water and a bottle of wine to celebrate our time in Paris, as well as a gift bag of lotion for my wife.

The apartment itself was great. As most places in Paris, it's on the smaller side of what you'd expect living in America, but that's part of its charm. We loved opening the windows and just listening to the buzz of the street below. Not to worry though, once the windows were closed, you couldn't hear anything from the street below aside from an occasional emergency vehicle. My wife and I had been to Paris before and stayed in a hotel during our other trip, but we both preferred living more like a local.
