Cynthia was very easy to work with. Communications were very clear and she had anticipated most of my questions (how to get here, where to eat, where to shop, where to get a taxi, and even how to dispose of trash and recycling the way Paris expects you to). She even helpfully described this apartment (which is one floor ABOVE the street level) as an American "second floor" or a British "first floor."
The apartment has more windows and is more spacious than I had expected. There is ample natural light and the kitchen is thoughtfully furnished. The furnishings are modern and chic and comfortable. I particularly enjoyed working on the large dining table.
The location is directly in the middle of the Luxembourg Gardens, the Pantheon and the Sorbonne. Because the area is centrally located in the heart of the Latin Quarter, expect a lot of foot traffic from locals and tourists. You will get a bit of street noise, so be forewarned. When I stayed, there were partyers on the streets until late. The heavy drapes on the windows help a lot, but I recommend you pack ear plugs with you. This is the trade-off for being as central as one can be.
