My husband and I had an incredible experience on our first visit to Paris as we celebrated my birthday and our wedding anniversary. We didn't have a chance to meet Sophie in person, but her associate Franck took excellent care of us. Franck contacted me about a week before our arrival with tips and suggestions for our trip. He provided nearby attractions and restaurants and gave me clear instructions on check-in and check-out. On our way to meet him, we were running behind and he patiently waited for us even though he had another appointment, which was so kind. He remained available to us by text for the duration of our stay (even as we suffered/complained through the unusual heatwave... there's no AC, but closed curtains helped a lot!). The flat was exactly as pictured, if not better. It was in an older building with a small elevator (I chose the stairs), and it was beautifully decorated, modern, and perfectly located. We were just a couple blocks from Moulin Rouge one way, down the hill from Sacré-Cœur Basilica the other, and were able to explore by foot restaurants, shops, and bars. (Train and bus stations are right at the end of the block.) Booking, staying, and check-out were smooth and Sophie was very responsive. We would gladly stay in her flat again. It felt like we were living in historic Paris!
