Wonderful. Elvire was excellent about keeping in communication, patient, and very informative. As to her apt, it is simple and elegant. The bed is firm but comfortable as is the day bed. The kitchen is very neat and useful for long term trips. All the amenities are excellent and the view is unparalleled. The 17th arrondissement is charming and quiet and filled with wonderful bakeries and fresh markets, as well as being convenient to the main #2 Metro line. There are also many lovely restaurants and brasseries and a fantastic bar on the corner (called La Legende) with a hot Swedish bartender. My best friend and I were in Paris for 10 days and had a wonderful time, thanks largely to Elvire's fantastic flat. Highest recommendation.
