We were 2 middle-aged couples from Los Angeles enjoying our second trip to Paris in Sept. 2014. Our stay at the Kaim family's lovely apartment could not have been more lovely! As has already been stated by others: the home is spacious, attractive, comfortable and CLEAN! We only used the well-stocked kitchen for quick breakfasts but if one desires to take advantage of Paris' fabulous open air markets, they'll find everything needed to create a gourmet meal. Most valuable was the warm welcome we received from the family. Mrs. K graciously suffered through my middle-school French and truly made us feel as though we were old friends. The location felt completely safe (the apartment is in a locked security building) and is in a busy & diverse "strolling" neighborhood with a pharmacy, grocery and many restaurants only a block or two away. Public transportation could not have been easier to navigate (in fact, we took the RER train/Metro from CDG to the apartment in under an hour, with each of us toting a rolling bag, pretty easy!) If ever in Paris again, we definitely will return to the home of the Kaim family, in fact after this wonderful rental experience, we may never book a hotel room anywhere, ever again!
