My stay in Paris was wonderful, and the apartment was everything and more that it was advertised to be. It is beautiful, spacious and airy, located in a traditional building with the charms of balconies, lots of natural light, a marble fireplace, etc, but with a clean, sophisticated renovation that works well with the traditional lines. The kitchen is excellent as is the bathroom--modern and useable. The bedrooms are quiet and comfortable; there is no clutter so it's easy to store your clothes and personal items. Wifi is strong, and, for the first time in Paris, I had NO issue with wifi. The cleaning lady is lovely and friendly, as is the building concierge. The building is quiet, and there is an elevator.

I enjoyed the quartier very much. I had never stayed in the 15th before and I really enjoyed it. The apartment is close to two metro lines as well as several bus lines, and it doesn't take more than 15 minutes to get right to the center of things. There is a vélib station just below the apartment if that is of interest, and very importantly, there is a taxi stand just around the corner, which makes transport to the airports a breeze. If you like to walk (as I do), it's also not unreasonable to walk into the 6th--a pleasant walk--or to walk over to the 14th, which I did via the parc Georges Brassens for a Saturday morning flea market. But the neighborhood feels far removed from the busy tourist areas of Paris, which for me was very desirable. It is an authentic, residential Parisian neighborhood, with the pleasant bustle of a busy street market, shops, lively cafés, etc.

Finally, the host/apartment owner was incredibly kind and responsive to any questions I had--everything about the stay was easy and convenient, and I plan to stay here again. I give the entire experience the highest rating. Merci, Laurence!
