We are 100% satisfied with the experience at Ian's charming little apartment. it is exactly as is described and how other reviewers have characterized. It is 5 minutes walk from the Ecole Militaire metro station and 10 minutes walk from the Eiffel tower. It is also within walking distance of lesser known attractions like the Military Museum and the Rodin Museum. As Ian has described and other reviewers have pointed out, the apartment is on the 5th floor. It is accessible by a narrow, winding staircase oozing with charm... but be aware that it is quite a workout each time you go up the stairs. There are exactly 90 steps to traverse. This may be a consideration if you have bad knees or if you are getting on in years. We had a bit more luggage than ideal, and getting it all up the stairs was not an easy matter. The apartment was available precisely at the time Ian said it would (2:00 PM). It was clean and neat. Towels were provided in the bathrooms, and emergency supplies (Toilet Paper, soap) were also provided. Note that, just like in other Airbnb rentals, you should plan to purchase your own supplies (such as toilet paper, garbage bags, paper towels, toothpaste, food etc) if you are planning to stay for any length of time. There are multiple stores within 1-2 minutes walking distance that can sell you everything you need. The apartment has Wifi and a decently fast connection to the net. We had several devices between us, and none of them had any trouble connecting or accessing the net. For some reason, connections to US sites were slow during the evenings and nights, but quite speedy during mornings. The apartment also has cable with a bunch of channels. There is also a DVD player and Ian has made a number of popular movies available. The kitchen is tiny but functional, laid out with space as efficiently used as on board a ship. There is a refrigerator, stovetop, oven, microwave, coffeemaker, kettle, exhaust fan and washing machine all packed into the space. The equipment is all modern and works well. We did not actually use the oven or the cooktop as we mostly ate out and got back late each day. Ian had kindly provided coffee & tea supplies which helped us out during our first day here. As expected, the apartment did not have A/C. We were here during the last week of July and Paris was quite cool, so it was not a problem at all. I suspect that this would not be a problem even in the heat, as the large French windows can be opened and the breeze at this height is considerable. The street is also rather quiet, so leaving the windows open at night is not a problem. The apartment does not have a clothes dryer, but there is a coin laundry just across the corner, and we ended up doing all of our laundry there....
