Vivianne and Emmanuel were the perfect hosts. They were very helpful and great at communication. The apartment is exceptionally well situated - within walking distance of the river and Paris attractions. It is right above "Beau Passage" which has beautiful cafes, restaurants, a bakery and wonderful coffee. A perfect little Fromagerie (cheese shop) is on the corner of the street - the cheeses were amazing. I would definitely recommend this apartment. It was a bonus that the apartment has a lift so we did not have to carry our large suitcases up three flights of stairs.
