In one word, our experience was "Wonderful". Elisabeth, Frantz and their charming family made our stay in Paris very special. We have stayed in many Airbnbs and can say they were the most welcoming hosts we have ever had. They went out of their way in so many ways and made us feel so welcome.
The apartment is just as described and in the photos. It is very spacious and Elisabeth and Frantz have modernized and furnished it very nicely, while still keeping some of the historic features of the building.
The kitchen is new, modern and very well equipped. There is a full size refrigerator and one can easily prepare meals as it is so well equipped.
The bathroom is also modern, with a wonderful towel warming bar.
The neighborhood is just as we had hoped - there were more locals than tourists and yet, it was close to 2 Metro stops, making it very easy to explore Paris. The location is also wonderful for exploring on foot the Maurais and Bastille areas. Shops and restaurants nearby were so convenient (sidewalk cafes, bakeries, grocery stores).
All in all, we had a "Five Star" experience!
