This was my first experience with AIRBNB, and it could not have been better. Françoise was responsive and cordial via email and accessible via telephone: very reliable. The apartment was exquisite: newly appointed with brand-new appliances, including clothes washer, all very clean, very airy, and comfortable, with plenty of cookware, dishes, and utensils: it's as pretty as it looks in the pictures. Access was easy via a small elevator, and there was good room for clothing and luggage storage. The location was perfect: in a quiet corner opposite the Arene de Lutece in the Latin Quarter, directly between two Metro stations (don't miss the jazz record store and the Vietnamese restaurant directly across the street). The wifi worked perfectly. I couldn't believe my good luck in finding Françoise's listing: so thoroughly Parisien. Brava!
