This is a beautiful and spacious 2 bedroom apartment in a great location in Paris. We loved the space and Pascale is very friendly but communication could have been better. She was not in town when we arrived so she had her friend let us in and show us around which was fine but she did not let us know that the front door to the courtyard (there are 4 doors before getting into the apartment) locks automatically at night and on weekends and requires a code. Neither Pascale or her friend provided us this information or the code and we found ourselves locked out of the apartment complex after dinner the first night. We called and messaged Pascale and her friend at least 10 times before anyone answered and were waiting in the cold for about 45 minutes before getting the code. The apartment was also very cold when we first arrived and it took a while before we were able to figure out the heating. Pascale also showed up to the apartment in the middle of the day without calling or sending a message first. My friend was there by herself so it would have been helpful to know she was coming beforehand. Overall, it was a very nice place to stay in Paris but it would have been very helpful to have a more detailed instruction manual on basic things like the code to the front door, instructions for heating, where the trash is located, etc. I would still recommend staying here if you are in Paris, just ask a lot of questions if there are no written instructions.
