The rooftop apartment is exactly what the pictures show: modern, clean and nicely decorated as well as equipped. The view to the historical city hall and Notre Dame and even the Eiffel tower from the balkonies made the time we spend there a very special part of our Paris experience. Our 4 year old daughter had a fun time climbing the stairs and watching the city life from the balconies. We enjoyed walking to Le Marais and Saint-Germain-des-Pres. The many transportation possibilities very close to the building include city bikes and the "Batobus" boats at the Seine. Soundproof windows efficiently block out any noise. The hosts: Sylvie was an excellent host. She really made us feel welcome and relaxed. She and Maxime were great at communicating before, during and even after our stay. We vere presented with little gifts and maps and information about Paris and the neighbourhood. She had generously taken care of drinks and even food for breakfast which was really thoughtful as we arrived quite late in the evening. During our stay it was unusually hot in Paris and also in the apartment so she made sure there was an electrical fan and extra cool sheets. For anybody looking for a friendly, personal and real Paris city experience we highly recommend the apartment and the hosts. Thank you Sylvie and Max :-)
