We were met by Freddie at the apartment, and the handover was smooth. The best part of the apartment is it central location, minutes walk from the Louvre, 15min walk to the Opera, and about 5 mins from the Tuileries Metro station.
There is are two convenience stores on either side of the building where one can get bread, butter, tea, coffee, etc. very easily.

the owners were helpful and responsive and helped out, including visiting the apartment on a weekend, for solving an issue that we had.
The bathroom is functional but small sized. all in all, a good apartment.
