First, the management company (Veeve) had an extraordinary staff. Questions and issues were always addressed within minutes as they were on call. They were also perfectly punctual for check-in and check-out.
The apartment is in Montmartre, which is like Brooklyn in terms of its neighborly feel, small boutiques and unassuming restaurants (even the couple I saw that are Michelin rated!).
The building has a wonderful, large courtyard, and the street itself is relatively quiet, so it's quite peaceful and bright.
The flat itself was very large for our family of four. The space allowed us to spread out and lounge around or work. It was incredibly cozy and comfortable. By total chance, we learned our friends were in Paris from Canada and we were able to invite them over for dinner and drinks on their last night. It was magical.
As you can see from the photos, the place has a ton of character, and like anything with a lot of character, it won't be suitable for everyone. I slept in the downstairs bedroom, as my kids found it creepy because it feels like a basement. The downstairs tub has no curtain or shower head holder, so you can really only use it for baths. Both bathrooms appear to be the product of an artists DYI project, so that may not be your thing if you like a modern, spotless bathroom.
Other than those things, the place is really wonderful. My friends described it as quintessential Paris. C'est Bon!
