We so enjoyed our one-week trip to Paris, and this apartment was a huge part of that. Communication with Philippe was easy- he is very responsive and patient (it was my first time with VRBO). The location of this apartment could not be better. The street is beautiful, the Rue Mouffetard market is so close and is just incredible, the Gobelin Metro station is just across the street, and the Place d'Italie Metro station is about a 7 minute walk away. There are many shops all around- cafés, boulangerie, restaurants, pharmacies, wine shops, larger grocery stores, fromagerie, florists, and more. We really appreciated the early check-in, and were met right out front upon our arrival. Philippe was sure to message us before we arrived, and got our flight info so he knew when to expect us, and then texted again once we landed. Our tour of the unit was really helpful. The unit itself is just as picture- it is very big, very French, and very well maintained. It very much felt like home. The building itself is quiet. We felt very safe in this unit, in this neighbourhood. We traveled with myself, my partner, my elderly mother and our two young children, and this unit provided lots of space for us to have time together and to also have some alone time to recharge. This apartment and manager are so deserving of their 5 star reviews! Bon voyage!
