Isabelle and her husband Etienne were incredibly helpful and sweet. Etienne even walked us around the neighborhood and showed us the closest Metro stop and the best places to eat (try around the corner on Rue de Buci or several decent sushi/Asian fusion restaurants in the other direction down Rue Daphine.) They both speak excellent English. The apartment is very comfortable and quiet (with the windows closed) despite the busy neighborhood. And it's close to the Louvre and gives easy access (by Metro) to other attractions as well. Be sure to do the nighttime boat ride down the Seine. You can walk to Vedettes du Pont Neuf to catch the boats.
