Mathilde's apartment is one of the best places we have stayed through airbnb so far. The apartment blends historic character and modern tastes to make for a comfortable and enjoyable home base. The apartment is located in an amazing neighborhood where actual Parisians clearly outnumber the tourists. The food options surrounding the apartment are exceptional and there is a beautiful little park just around the corner for starting the day off with a coffee and pastry from one of the local shops. The apartment also has easy access to a number of sites via numerous metro lines or beautiful walks. I couldn't recommend Mathilde's place enough.
