Igor was very easy to communicate with via email and responded quickly and politely. He was out of town while we were in Paris but a local woman that has been in the neighborhood for 26 years was there to greet us and show us the apartment. She was pleasant and welcoming. Igor had coffee that we could make, plenty of clean sheets, towels and pillows. We had a friend stay on the pull-out couch sofa bed and the bed part of it was not in good shape. He had to sleep sideways on the bed so that a bar wasn't hurting his back. My wife says that the apartment could be cleaner. The shower had some mold for example. But It felt acceptable to me.

The neighborhood is the most convenient for tourists. There's a market at the end of the street and everything you could want to eat In the neighborhood. The view from the huge windows is amazing. From CDG Airport it couldn't be any easier. One train ride and a 2 minute walk and you're there. You can walk to the the Seine in a few minutes, the Louvre in 10 and anywhere is easily accessible from the metro that is just a block away. We rented city bikes (Velib) which have two stations within 1 block. I would definitely go back to Igor's apartment! The location, view and ease to find the place was the best we've ever experienced. You won't regret it:)
