Our train arrived in Paris early in the morning and Mallory was kind enough to meet us at the apartment at about 9am which was a huge help, and not expected. He was a very welcoming host, telling us about the local neighbourhood and leaving us with great resources to assist us in exploring Paris. Responses to messages did take a little longer than expected, but not too long to cause concern.
The apartment itself was huge for the heart of Paris, and only a very short walk to the metro. It had everything we needed and was very clean. We stayed for 5 nights, but the place was plenty big enough for an extended stay. The price was cheaper than the hostel we were looking at, but the apartment is a million times better than a shared dorm. We will most definitely return here, and recommend it to all our friends and family!
