We had a wonderful time in Paris. The apartment is just as advertised, it is on a cute side street with restricted access, close to lots of cafes and the metro. The apartment doesn't have air conditioning and it was hot while we were there and it can get a little noisy at night with the windows open. People in Paris like to stay up late. We never met our host but he was quick to answer any messages we sent concerning questions about the apartment. I would recommend this as a good place to stay while you are in Paris.
