Renting Claudia's apartment was a very good experience. She was very helpful throughout the process and was responsive to my requests. The location of the apartment is pretty cool. I have been to Paris eight times and stayed in various parts of the city and this was one of the best because it is located right on Rue Mouffetard. The local shopping and markets were very enjoyable. The apartment itself has three separate bedrooms and two bathrooms / showers making it an good situation for traveling with the family. The building and apartment itself are charming and has the feel of old Paris. When my family went out for the first time, we discussed how we could have stayed in a nice hotel, but we would have missed out on the charm of staying in this place and enjoying the local bakeries, markets, and shops. Located on a walking only street and just a few minutes from the closest Metro, made it convenient to all of Paris. Since we got a Metro pass, we used it a lot but the apartment is just a 15 minute walk to Notre Dame.

The four stars is a very solid rating. It would be five stars except for the following: The size of the showers which are a bit tight for adults and American standards. The lack of elevators and walking up two flights of stairs were not a problem for us but could be for some people. Not having a television was also not a problem for us. Kind of nice actually. Otherwise, the apartment is charming and nice.
