My wife and I stayed at Noemie's place in mid-September for three nights. We didn't get to meet Noemie, but her mother was lovely at check in, waiting for us even after we had delays at the airport. Noemie was also flexible with us leaving our bags in the room after checkout, which was very much appreciated. The place is small, but is fine for two people and had everything we needed. The biggest positive is, of course, the location! It's right in the middle of town, across the road from the metro (which is easy to use, fast, and connects you to everywhere) and opposite the Louvre. Food choices were surprisingly limited in the immediate vicinity, but a short stroll over the river to the 6th arr. or Latin Quarter and the options were plentiful. If you're going to Paris to see the sights then Noemie's apartment is a perfect place from which to explore.
