Wow! I don't think you can find a more perfect apartment and location in Paris than Lou's place! Everything was just as described and is somehow even more charming than it appears in the photos (and that's saying something!). Lou met us for check-in and was exceedingly hospitable and welcoming. She kindly showed us around and made sure we had all we needed when we got there. The place was the perfect size for two people and included a very good-sized kitchen (which we used to cook a full New Year's eve dinner) and a large bathroom (with a big shower by European standards). The terrace is like something out of a dream. We almost couldn't believe what we were seeing when we arrived. There is a completely unobstructed view of Sacre-Coeur that is breathtaking (both during the day and when lit up at night) and the surrounding view of quintessential Parisian rooftops could not be more charming. The place itself is settled on a very quiet street but is only footsteps away from so many great little cafes, restaurants, bars, markets, and shops. We easily explored most of the city by foot (e.g. minutes to cafes/shops in Marais, 15 minutes to le Centre Pompidou, 25 minutes to Notre Dame, 30 minutes to the Louvre, 50 minutes to the top of Sacre-Coeur). When our vacation had come to an end, we were truly sad to have to leave Lou's place... it really is that magical! If you're on the fence about staying here, do yourself a favor and say yes. You won't regret it!
