We enjoyed staying here last week when I took my daughter and her friend for their high school graduation trip. We could not have been happier with our experience. Looking back, I can't believe I even considered a hotel (which would have been one cramped room for the same price we paid for this two-bedroom apartment).

Our experience was exceptional from the beginning, when the hosts' assistant greeted us at the apartment the morning of our arrival with fresh croissants and hot coffee (just what we needed after 14 hours of travel!), and also left a bottle of champagne in the refrigerator (which we enjoyed to toast our last night).

The apartment is well-decorated and the beds were comfortable with soft linens. The bathroom and kitchen were perfect -- and the availability of a washer/dryer was much appreciated. The views from the windows (overlooking the Blvd St. Germaine) were so nice (Bastille Day parade!) and I enjoyed being able to lounge on the sofa in the afternoons, with the large windows letting in the cool breeze, and just enjoy some peace after a busy day of sightseeing. And having my own separate bedroom from my daughter and her friend was exactly what I needed.

Our hosts provided us with detailed instructions on how to use everything in the apartment, as well as customized suggestions for the area -- including an itinerary for Bastille Day, a map for shopping, and recommendations for nearby cafes, which were delightful and non-touristy.

The location was just perfect -- 2 blocks from the Musee D'Orsay and the Seine River. Short strolls to wonderful cafes / restaurants and shopping and metro stops. Everything we needed or wanted was either a short walk or short metro ride away.

I think staying here gave us a truly wonderful Parisian experience. We lacked for nothing that a hotel could provide. I will recommend this apartment to anyone I know traveling to Paris and I hope to be able to stay there again!!
