Jean's apartment is very nice and exactly as pictured. Jean was very responsive to questions before and during our stay. We had a 1.5 yr old and there was enough room for her to run around. The washer/dryer is a bit loud but I suggest just running in while you are out touring Paris. All appliances, TV, and bathroom worked well. The wifi was very reliable but doesn't support video streaming from DirectTV, HBONow, etc. (not a big deal since one should be out touring Paris, not watching TV. The bed and couch are very nice and soft. The only challenge is going up the 4 flights of stairs to Jean's apartment but we knew when we booked the building does not have an elevator as most in Paris do not have elevators. Just be ready to huff and puff when taking your luggage up to the apartment. Other then that we really enjoyed our stay at Jean's place and would highly recommend to any one interested in visiting Paris as it is very close to Notre Dame and metro and there is a food stood a block away and many cafes and restaurants all around the apartment.
