We just spent four fantastic days in Barbara's apartment. The apartment was exactly as it had been described beautifully decorated and maintained. Not even a five minute walk to the metro lots of shops and restaurants as well as the Pompidou and more. Barbra was very helpful giving us suggestions where to eat shop etc, as well as giving me a list of streets to take my teenage daughter shopping. I would highly recommend this apartment. I only wish I had plans to go back.
