We came to Paris for our honeymoon. Charlotte was a very welcoming host and was responsive to our emails and even though we were late for check in because our plan was late, had her cleaning lady wait for us. She even left us restaurant recommendations which were very helpful while we were getting acclimated. At first we were a bit apprehensive about the neighborhood as it is more modern, less typical old french architecture, but after spending time there we found our favorite spots near by, a yummy patisserie, noodle spot, brasserie and the best street to walk down for restaurants and unique shopping that was just mentioned by the New York times, Rue de Charrone. I really fell in love with the area. Please note that to get to most other Arrondissements (districts) and tourist attractions you will have to take the subway which happens to be very easy and convenient to get to. The area and the apartment is very hip and artsy, the apartment is actually located above an art gallery. The kitchen is small but clean and clear and had everything you would need to make a nice breakfast in the morning and have cheese and wine in the afternoon. One issue that we ran into was that in the morning on weekdays we woken up by the noise made when people opened and closed doors, walked up the stars or talked. This is not a problem if you plan on getting up by 8 am in the morning to see the city, or are a heavy sleeper. We, however were none of those things. I would say that the apartment is great for having a fun, hip time in the city but not to relax or necessarily for romance.
