The apartment was beautiful - very well appointed and located in a very nice neighborhood. We really enjoyed the fact that it is not in a super touristy part of Paris. You get a feel for a more authentic Parisian lifestyle. It is also very close to the metro, which is quite convenient, given the size of Paris.

I would highly recommend staying in this apartment. Note that there are two flights of stairs and the staircase is winding and quite narrow. It can be difficult to carry large luggage, but it is possible. Just be prepared. Also, note that for hot water in the shower, you must turn on (and wait for) the water heater to heat the water. Otherwise your shower will be very cold.

Upon arriving, we spoke to Dominique's son and daughter-in-law who were very nice and gave us recommendations for places to eat. They were also available if we needed anything.
