This apartment was the perfect base for me and my eleven year old daughter to discover Paris and allowed us to have a two week stay which we will never forget.
The two small balconies gave amazing views of the Eiffel Tower- which was particularly lovely at night when it sparkles. Apart from being in a beautiful quiet building - on the top floor ( penthouse ) - in a great part of Paris- the apartment itself was spotlessly clean and more than we could have wished for. The apartment had great heating, a really comfortable big bed and a deep bath. There was an abundance of natural light and beautiful views from both the living areas and from the bedroom. There was a fully equipped kitchen including dishwasher, a washing machine and dryer and the apartment had quality furniture and fittings. It had a lovely feel- and my daughter kept saying she wanted to buy the apartment and live there forever!
In addition to all of these things Philippe speaks French and English which made our interactions easy. He was the perfect host - kind and considerate - before our stay he walked us around the local area so we could get our bearings - imparting invaluable local knowledge about the best places supermarkets, restaurants and where the metro stations were. At the completion of our trip ( my daughter had lost her ipod at a restaurant) he called and spoke to the place and then took us there to pick it up and continued on and dropped us at the airport! I am not saying he'll do this for everyone but I cannot rave highly enough about how lovely the apartment or Phillipe was. It was just perfect.
