My family and I stayed at Paul's apartment for 8 nights (2 adults, a 2 year old and 6 year old). Apartment was BEAUTIFUL and modern, and with a few adjustments was made-kid safe relatively easily. The apartment entrance has a giant glass wall that overlooks to the garden which is shared by the community, but you can close an electronic screen if you don't want early morning light or need more privacy. It has all of the amenities, including a small kitchen which we used for daily breakfasts, and there were little shops within walking distance for buying fresh bread, eggs, fruit, including a department store with a grocery store in the basement that's literally across the street from the apartment. The closest metro stop is Marx Dormoy, and we had no trouble getting into town (about 30-45 minutes to get to Notre Dame), and its 2 stops (10 minutes) away from the Monmatre area (Sacre Couer, Moulin Rougue). In the apartment, the adults slept in the bedroom, and the kids slept on the cot in the living room - the apartment is HUGE by Parisian standards. One note is that the wall between the living room and bedroom is glass. If the people in the living room are bothered by light, be aware that the bedroom light get into the living room through the glass wall. Another tip for families traveling with small children and/or pregnant women - you can cut to the front of the line of museums and visitor sights. Overall - great stay a Paul's place. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
