Emon was super helpful, communicative, pleasant, etc. Apartment in great location - a few minutes' walk to Notre Dame, Marais, Metro, etc. Apartment is very much an individual's home - NOT a sterile, for-rent space. Decor and feel is quite funky. There are about 8 zillion books, and where the walls aren't covered with books, then it's art, posters, and tapestries. All of which is great, if that's what you like. Just don't expect a hotel-like experience. Everything was perfectly clean, though there's a slightly tired feel in places (e.g., carpet in upstairs bedrooms). Anyway, we were four people - myself, wife, 19 year old daughter, 17 year old son - and we were comfortable and happy.
