My wife and I have been to Paris many times and have always stayed in a variety of left bank hotels. We decided to try Airbnb and we were very pleased with the experience and the apartment. The photos represent the unit very well. It is a terrific Saint Germain location. Things to know about the apartment are: 1)it is a 3rd floor walk-up- approx. 60 steps. That may discourage some people. 2)Also the entrance to the building is very dark and somewhat run down. You can turn on lights to walk up and down the winding staircase which is a necessity. 3) the toilet is off of the living room rather than off the bedroom where the shower and sink are. All in all we were very satisfied despite these few minor issues and would definitely rent an apartment again and possibly this one. Bernard is an extremely accomodating and nice man and very helpful.
