Pascal was wonderful! He met us outside his apartment on the day of arrival and was very accommodating to our need to check in early due to our flight time/time difference/jet lag. He was very thorough in explaining where everything in the apartment was and how to use it. He then took his time in explaining where everything is in the city (literally can stand on the balcony to point things out - wonderful panoramic view!) and then made sure we also knew where all the high points were on the map as well. We found this the most helpful!

He has a Nespresso machine handy - but no pods, so if you wish to make coffee or espresso this way, bring your own or (like I did) buy a sleeve at the Nespresso store on Champs Élysées. Otherwise, there is instant coffee handy.

Very clean place, easy to access from the metro station Jourdain and good neighborhood - has a grocery store, a few fruit markets and two bakeries with very good baguettes and croissants (you walk past both en route to the apartment from the metro station).
