The most wonderful location you could find and just a wonderful flat overall. The room is enchanting with the chandelier and for the three of us; the entire flat was quite spacious. The flat is private and quiet and allowed us very restful nights. There is a wonderful bird that lives in the courtyard and every morning we had the pleasure of listening to his singing. I never got to meet Diane or Himanshu as the mother checked us in and out. Fortunately for us our foreign exchange student was able to speak to her when we checked in. Checking out was frustrating as she does not speak any English and I wanted to ensure I left the flat as good as I walked into. Overall though we had a wonderful stay and would stay here again without hesitation.
Just a 10 minute walk from the flat down by all the art galleries are some of the best croissants you will ever have in your life, along with gelato, etc. Walk 10 minutes to the Seine River and eat at Café Louis Phillipe, honestly some of the best food and service we had in the city.
Now a couple of things I think are worth mentioning.
1.	I HIGHLY recommend printing up a google map of where the flat is located or the hosts providing better directions. We got lost for nearly two hours after getting off the metro trying to find it. This was incredibly frustrating and should have been avoided, especially towing around luggage.
2.	Running out of coffee in the flat. For the amount of money I paid, I should not be running out of Nespresso fillers by day two.
3.	The mattress on the pullout couch is incredibly uncomfortable. Consider yourselves warned. However, the couch itself is very pretty…you just don’t want to sleep on it.
