A truly exceptional place to stay in terms of location, ambiance, and value. You are in the 1er (1st arrondissement) -- it doesn't get more central than this! I stayed there with my parents, and before we arrived, I was concerned about us sleeping all in one room, but the apartment is so well laid out that no one felt cramped at all. The "sofa" bed for the "3rd person" is actually what we call a "day bed" in the US, and it was really comfortable for sleeping. The kitchen is also well-equipped, and we cooked throughout our entire stay.

Philippe was very good with communication before and during our stay. Everything you need is close by -- laundromat, grocery stores, boulangerie, bars/restaurants. The "baguette tradition" from the boulangerie across the street was the best we had in France.
