We'very vidited Paris Dec' 16 with our 3 children (6-11). The host is very nice and friendly and his communication is amazing; very fast and efficient. He really takes care of how you feel in the apartment. We have visited in the busiest time of the year, the Christmas holidays. Regretfully, the noise from outside was really profound. Neighbours hosted family/friends climbed stairs and move furniture late at night, regardless of house rules. The close church was feeding people, thus there was a que of people chattering till late at night. Trash bins were cleaned by a truck early in the morning. 6am a person dragged the bins to their collecting spot (each day of our visit). But all this doesn't relate to the flat. The location was incredible! You could walk from the flat to the highlights of Paris. At first I thought that this place is dramatically expensive, but when I got the feeling of the prices in Paris, I've realised that it actually fair price in comparison to the expensive area. We had all that we needed on the flat. The washing machine was great. If you are not washing the dishes with hot water, just before bath time, than 5 people can shower, sequencially, with just enough water for the last one. There's no oven, but with stove top and microwave you can find yourself around. Plenty of kitchen items. No means to broom the floors or wipe the counters though. Very close to a supermarket and restaurants. Very close to RER/Metro. I'd recommend staying in Lucas's flat. It's very specious and we've had a really nice time.
