Beautiful apartment with comfortable bed, snugly couch and good rain shower. Apartment was clean and very tastefully decorated. The balcony is small but still fine to sit out for a short period. Area was quiet, but as it was August many shops/restaurants were closed so not sure if this is representative of the area at other times of year - Paris was quiet in general during our visit. Jean-Paul communicated really well throughout the process so no complaints at all.
