The hosts communicated quickly and thoroughly. We felt welcomed and were met at the apartment on time to get the key and have a brief tour of the apartment. All was as described, secure, quiet, and was just what we needed for our week stay. The space is small but fine for 2 people; hot water always; easy to cook meals; good books on bookshelf; and a fan that works well! The neighborhood is lively and very central to all of Paris. All in all, it was easy to arrange, and the apartment was an excellent choice in terms of convenience and comfort.
