This is a lovely apartment in a fantastic area of Paris. We were so very happy with the apartment, which included everything we needed for a comfortable, enjoyable stay. It was very clean and nicely decorated, and we loved the tall windows in every room, looking out onto the street below, with its shops and restaurants. At night, the street was quiet and so it was perfect for sleeping too.
Jean's place is literally a 5 minute walk to the Seine, and the Metro is even closer. We could easily walk down to l'Hotel de Ville, across to the Notre Dame, and the Latin Quarter, over to the Musee D'Orsay and across to the Louvre. You really are in the heart of Paris, and this neighbourhood is wonderful for strolling around, shopping and eating. It has everything you need. Don't forget to get crepes at La Droguerie, 56 Rue Des Rosiers - so delicious!
Although we didn't meet Jean in person, he was very responsive with communications and easy to deal with. Booking went smoothly. He uses a service for check-in, which was very efficient - Juliette was waiting for us outside the front door, right on time.
Overall, we highly recommend Jean's place and are looking forward to coming back again soon! 5 STARS!
