Fred met us at the apartment, was very welcoming and showed us everything we need to know about the apartment. He answered any questions we had, was available if we had any questions, and was quick to recommend places to eat and drink. The apartment itself is in a beautiful older building (possibly Haussmann...very "Paris"). It is on the 6th floor but there is a lift. The view from the terrace is what I always think of when I think of Paris....the old style rooftops and chimney pots. The place was comfortable, and in addition to the terrace view the second bedroom and the living room overlook an interior courtyard. There were two pianos and a guitar in the apartment, wifi, etc...everything is as described on here. Fred was accommodating --because our flight arrived early in the morning he allowed us to check in early as well. Very pleasant...both Fred and the apartment. If/when I get back to Paris I would definitely stay here again. To wake up in a comfortable bed and look through the terrace doors across the rooftops of Paris as the sun comes up is indescribable. There are many small shops and restaurants in the area and nearby metro stations...every morning my daughter strolled a short distance (maybe 50 yards) to Café Petit to sit outside with her morning coffee and watch the city go by. I can't recommend this apartment and area enough!
