This apartment is in a great location, close to wonderful restaurants and to all the main attractions in Paris. Very well communicated by public transportation. Communication with Nicolas was great. We did not meet him, but his mother Elke gave us a wonderful welcome to the place. The apartment is nice and cozy, although it could use a bit more cleaning especially the dust in the carpet. One important thing to notice is the elevation. It is in a 5th floor (6th per US standards), and has no elevator. It is an old building, well maintained, but the stairs are steep and narrow. It is not suited for persons with mobility issues or those who can get tired easily. The apartment could also be better equipped with kitchen utensils, mugs/cups, and more towels and sheets. Overall, it needs a little attention, but highly recommended because of the location.
