First, let me disclose that my husband and I stayed for 2 weeks - I used to live in Paris and my husband was here for 2 months (about 10 years ago). So, we were both pretty specific about the kind of place we wanted to stay in and the location. We were right on the money with this choice. From the beginning Jonathan was very communicative about the apartment, the rules, the fees, and all the other details you might not think about at first, but actually do need to know. I appreciated how well he prepared us and how helpful he was, without us having to ask a million questions to feel prepared about our arrival, stay, and departure. He made the experience great and totally easy. Jonathan's mother actually checked us in to the apartment as Jonathan was out of town, and she was super sweet and walked us through all the things we needed to know, where everything was located in the apartment, and answered any questions we had. She even left apples for us in the kitchen which was really thoughtful! The listing was exactly as described, and as pictured. It was super cute, cozy, clean, and very Parisian with the wood floors and white walls with big windows and great light. The bed was quite comfy and plenty big enough for my husband and I. The view out of the windows was great - there's a little noise outside during the morning (just the usual street cleaning and sometimes police sirens), but mostly it's a pretty quiet and peaceful place to stay. There is a huge amount of closet space and shelves for you to hang, fold, store your belongings. The bathroom is pretty big (by European standards) and the shower and bathtub are nice and easy to use, even if you've never been to Europe. Plenty of towels were provided for our stay. If you're super particular about having washcloths, you might want to bring your own. There is a washer and dishwasher for anyone staying a length of time like we did - no dryer for your clothes, but a drying rack is provided and worked just fine for our needs. Pretty much everything you might need is provided - an iron and ironing board, cleaning supplies, laundry and dish detergent, a hairdryer. Because we were there 2 weeks, it was required that a house cleaner come mid-stay and clean the apartment. It was at additional cost to us of 30 euros, but Jonathan made that very clear in the beginning before we committed to booking the apartment, and it was actually really nice to have someone clean the place during our stay. So, that was great. The apartment is on the 5th floor (6th to Americans) and there is no elevator, so the jaunt up to the apartment is not for the faint of heart. But, it's all part of the Parisian charm, yeah ; ) The neighborhood is nice and...
