The apartment was cozy and modern placer that is situated perfectly where a quick 2-3 block walk puts you on Rue Mouffetard with vibrant shops and nightlife where I would recommend a stop by Singh Indian Restaurant if you like traditional Indian dishes and a wonderful chai tea. Every store and restaurant we visited on Rue Mouffetard was friendly and quick to speak English without being inconvenienced. Best yet was that even though you are close to a vibrant night life, it was fairly quiet and peaceful on the apartment's street. A quick 4-5 block walk will put you at the Place Monge metro station that is a few stops from major hub stations making it easy to get around to all the major sites in Paris.
The apartment is perfect for people that are looking for a clean, well maintained place to stay while visiting Paris. You would not be able to entertain a group but it is a great place to relax during downtime and catching a good nights rest. It is well stocked with dishes, pots/pans, and some basics should you want to have a meal in instead of going out. Yann has clearly gone the extra mile to make sure most needs are covered.
As a host Yann was wonderful. He was unable to meet us personally when we arrived but ensured there was someone there to greet us, showed us the amenities of the apartment, and answer any questions we had. Yann went a step further with a personalized welcome basket that highlighted local treats. When we reached out to Yann for advise, he was quick to respond with what he knew off-hand and then followed up later with very detailed answer you could only get from a local Parisian.
Overall for a first trip to Paris, we found this to be the perfect location with a great host. The next time we are to visit Paris, we would not hesitate to stay at this location or any property hosted by Yann.
