First off:
It's an absolutely wonderful location. Perhaps a little quiet compared to the 5th, or Marais, but we found that to be a plus. And quiet in no way means no food or locations around! The Jardin du Luxembourg is mere seconds away, and there are metro lines that will take you to any of the other arrondissements within an 8 minute walk. We quickly found a series of cafes and boulangeries that more than met expectations nearby.
Eric is also a wonderful and responsive host, and provided both recommendations, and everything that you could possibly want within the room. The kitchenette was well stocked (with optional cook-top, if you wanted), the bath was very nice, and there were plenty of little nooks to lounge or eat or drink wine.
The bed was also quite comfortable, with your own little personal, optional skylights. (You can black them out if desired).
