Not what was expected.

The location was great but that was all. there were no instructions to operate anything. The washer/dryer and the phone did not work so we could not call the owner nor could we receive phone calls. We requested for my brother to see the place before hand and the owners did not respond. We had said we wanted 2 beds and on arrival there were only linens for one. And the quilt had not been cleaned. with the Murphy bed down there was no room for the sofa bed.There was no storage place for luggage or a place for clothes. This place is for 1 or a married couple only.

This studio is located in one of our favorite neighborhoods, just a few blocks from the hotel we usually stay at. This is the first time we used VRBO and were very pleased with our choice. The studio is true to images posted on the website, and again the location is excellent. There was plenty of room for two people to move about and overall the building tennants are fairly quiet. Close to several metro and bus stops; there are plenty of markets, restaurants, and shops in the neighborhood to keep you busy for weeks. The Musee Rodin is a pleasant ten (10) minute stroll from your door step, also check out the local boule games on Saturdays at the Esplanade Invalides. The owners responded promptly to our initial request and were friendly and helpful upon arrival. As our stay was for one (1) month, the washer/dryer was a wonderful plus. P.S. Cafe Roussillon on rue Grenelle is a great lunch or dinner spot, the Raviloi St. Jaques is tres magnifique.

A friend and I just spent a week at this apartment in Paris (September, 2010) and it was fantastic. The owners were super friendly and helpful and responded to our needs quickly. They showed us around the neighbourhood which includes some fabulous shopping and eating - all extremely close by. The apartment had everything we needed (apart from a kettle but we managed to happily boil away on the stove top). The lift was extremely handy given the amount of luggage we had. Only a 5 min walk from the Metro and about 10 mins from the Eiffel Tower, I'd highly recommend it.

Studio was exactly as described (except not "Full kitchen" as there is no oven) and shown in photos. It is small but quite lovely, clean, pleasant and served us well for our 1 week stay. Bed was very comfortable. DSL was very fast. TV is very small, but we never wanted to watch TV anyway. Location is wonderful, very near Rue Cler market street (don't miss that cheese shop). Stop for Bus #69 (which was our main transport to major museums, but remember no service on Sundays/holidays) and several great bakeries are 1 minute away on Rue Saint-Dominique. Metro stops not so close. Street and bldg were quiet. You can walk to Seine in 10-15 minutes. Owners are native English speakers and were extremely friendly and helpful. Note that kitchen has no oven, only stovetop, and few pans and utensils. Be sure to get instructions on operating the washer/dryer - it is complex and the printed manual is NOT enough. Rental agency manager Pascal was super helpful and friendly in answering all questions and making arrangements.
