I had high expectations and was not disappointed. Pascal, the owner and manager of the property, sets and maintains a high standard. The level of service and responsiveness is high, and I enjoyed working with him. The apartment matches its description, and all features of the apartment functioned as intended. It is clean and bright and tastefully renovated and furnished. The location is outstanding. I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet the street was, with very little vehicle traffic. The apartment is within two blocks of the St. Paul metro. The bakery, cheese shop, butcher, and fruit/vegetable stall on the Rue de Rivoli - all within three blocks - are excellent.
Overall - an excellent stay. The only caveat I would point out is that the building is a walk-up and guests who have difficulty with four flights of stairs should contact Pascal directly to get his perspective. He offers other properties as well.
