The location was perfect, nice and quiet but close to everything. The building and apartment was very clean and pleasant. Our only issue was lack of a clothes dryer and the shower having very low water pressure and, at times, it was hard to get hot water. But all things considered this was a great spot.

Great Location
The property is on a great lively street and close to metro stations. Great restaurants, cafes, markets, and boulangeries are all within walking distance. Bed was comfy and never had a problem with hot water. Couch was not comfy and pillows were hard. We had a long stay and only had 2 rolls of TP, 2 towels and 2 hand towels, w no dishwasher or laundry detergent. I don’t know if that’s usual but would’ve been nice. Check-in lady was very polite but didn’t speak English however we made it work! Highly recommend!

Clean and convenient apartment in great area
This apartment was very clean and convenient. Rue du Cherche Midi is a great area with lots of nearby shops including a Carrtefour Express and a good boulangerie with long hours. Everything at the apartment worked! The large bed is very comfortable. The ability to open windows on both side of the apartment allowed for good air flow, even in warm weather. Street noise may bother some renters but double windows work very well when closed. Would definitely stay there again.

Immaculate apartment in excellent, central location
The apartment was very clean, spacious and modern and had everything I needed. The location is ideal - fairly central, which means many sights are within walking distance. There is a handy mini-supermarket almost opposite the flat and several restaurants, but the road was not too busy - I had no trouble sleeping in the very comfortable king-size bed. Checking in and out went very smoothly. I would highly recommend this apartment.

Perfect one bedroom in the middle of it all
This perfect one bedroom, right in the heart of Saint Germain des Pres, was exactly what we were looking for. Walk to Musee d"Orsay, or Cafe de Flore, or Luxembourg Gardens? No Problem. I walked to all three. Want a little cup of coffee, or a quick meal close by. No problem. Brasseries and boulangeries are only steps away. We could not have been happier with the location, the service, the check-in and check-out process! I have posted this listing in an online Francophile group with rave reviews. You should see several bookings very soon! Hope to stay with you again next time we are in Paris!

Foodie's Paradise
After staying one month in Simon’s home we feel qualified to say how wonderful his small apartment is! Like you, the two of us read all the other reviews before committing, and I am happy to report there were no issues for us with either noise or hot water, as mentioned by one guest. Madame Catherine kindly explained how everything worked when we got there, and we soon discovered it took no more than 20-30 minutes to walk to most tourist attractions. And what a beautiful walk it is to amble through the 5th, 6th, and 7th arrondissements! I took French classes at nearby L’Alliance française, and if you are a foodie, you will appreciate La Grande Epicerie one block away, not to mention the best charcutière (Maison Verot), affineur (Quatres Hommes), and boulanger (Poilane) at your doorstep. I counted more than a half-dozen chocolate shops within a two-block radius as well as innumerable cafés and restaurants, the best of which being, IMHO, L’Abraise, 117 rue Cherche Midi. The spartanly furnished apartment is ultra clean and perfectly efficient; it is luminous and airy, and with the small terrace and elevator, it is very reasonably priced, especially considering the location. Terrific!

More Pros than Cons
Our first time in Paris was excellent. The property was as-advertised and the cons below are largely out of the manager's and owner's hands.
CONS:
- The biggest issue was that the building's heat and hot water were unavailable during our stay. Cold showers arent the best, but it definitely wakes you up in the morning. To the credit of the property manager, she did provide a space heater so we could stay warm at night
- Hallway lighting was unavailable and a little dangerous given the unfamiliarity of the area.
- The combination washer/dryer was slow. Like, painfully. We ran two 4-hour dryer cycles and still had to dry clothes on the heated drying rack (the rack itself is a HUGE pro).
- On the exit, the property manager noted "additional" dings in the wall near the crank for the patio shutters. When we checked in, she pointed out the damage and we did not use the shutters, so we're unsure why she felt the need to point it again out afterwards.
PROS
- Elevator. Seriously, what a huge PRO.
- TONS of cafes, shops, pharmacies, and a very convenient distance to both metro and trains.
- This is a residential area, so it's quiet and you see more of the day-to-day and less of the tourist crowds
- HEATED TOWEL RACK. Given the cold showers we had to take, this was a godsend.
- Responsive property manager. While the owner is not in-country. his property manager is very responsive and helpful.
- Tons of dishes, cutlery, and enough pots and pans to make a quick meal. Also, lots of cleaning supplies.
Overall, our biggest complain was something out of the host's control. We had a lovely visit and would definitely recommend the listing to newcomers and repeat visitors. However, I'd also warn against using the dryer and either bring enough clothes to not need to use it, or opt to use the laundromat a few doors down.

Great stay in a Parisian Neighbourhood
The apartment is probably the cleanest vacation rental we have ever stayed at. Absolutely spotless! In fact, considering there are no soft furnishings, I would recommend this rental for anyone who suffers from asthma or similar allergies. Dust won't be a problem here.
We were impressed by high-quality appliances, fixtures, and fittings. The bed was very comfortable, as were the beddings. In the bedroom, there was also a spacious wardrobe with plenty of clothes hangers - not a given.
The location is excellent. There are 3 metro stops relatively near, so you are well connected - very easy to get to e.g. CDG using metro and RER B. There are small grocery shops, bakeries, and plenty of restaurants nearby, as well as Le Bon Marché, with its food court, La Grande Epicerie de Paris, just a block away. The street is relatively quiet, although you should make sure that you have earplugs if you like to sleep late - the bin men arrive around 7 am.
Both the owner, Simon, and Mme Catherine, who met us at the apartment and keeps it so clean, were quick to respond and very helpful, doing everything they could when there were issues with the building's communal heating/hot water system.
We hope to be back soon, if Simon will have us :)

Just what I wanted!
This property was clean, well furnished and in a great location. The kitchen had many high end appliances that needed a degree to operate, pay close attention to Catherine’s instructions. She was great, even swept the terrace although I wasn’t going to use it in winter. I would also suggest the owner add a coffee table in the living area (nowhere to set your glass of wine when relaxing) and another set of eating utensils (only 4 of each, I was washing spoons and cups every two days). Located very close to three Metro lines. Note that the St. Placide station (line 4) is closed on Sundays, and Monday and Thursday evenings, through the summer.

Paris's 6th Arrondissement - a great neighbourhood to explore
The location - on Rue du Cherche Midi - was excellent. Both the building and the street were very quiet. With windows on both ends of the apartment, the unit was nice and bright. We were there for two weeks in November and found that the heating in the apartment worked very well. The building security and door locks made us feel very safe and having an elevator made getting luggage up to the third floor very easy. Lots of restaurants and cafes in the area and several good grocery stores were only a block away. Very close to both the St. Placide and Rennes Metro stations so getting around the city was easy. Lots & lots of storage space for both clothing and food in cupboards, closets & drawers. A very well-equipped apartment in an excellent neighbourhood - we hope to go back again soon!

Nice modern well-equipped apartment in charming convenient area
Very nice apartment, modern, well-equipped, excellent location in charming and convenient area. Flexible and friendly welcome and checkout. As in the great majority of Paris apartments, there is some noise from the street, but only if you, like us, want to leave the window open for fresh air. The washer dryer is a real convenience. It takes a long time, but it's easy to plan ahead to allow the 3 hours or so needed. The apartment has just about anything you could ask for. Highly recommended. It would be even better if there were a coffee table in front of the couch and the price were a bit lower.

great location, great apartment, great neighborhood, and close to everything!
We had a great stay. The apartment was clean, well-appointed, and very comfortable. Despite our limited french, we had no issues getting the keys and Leandro gave us a great introduction to the apartment. We would definitely stay again! The only slightly off-putting thing is the early check out fee . We had an early train the day of our departure and even though we stayed 7 nights we were charged an extra 50 euros. Not a huge deal, but if it is for you, just keep it in mind.

Just lovely - Already Planning Return
This is a wonderful apartment -- one of the best I've rented in 25 years of "Europe by the Month"! The apartment is spacious and very nicely furnished, and has the largest and most complete kitchen I've encountered. The bathroom is really large, and I'll be adding a rainshower to my home, now that I've tried the one here. Mattress is rather tired, but I've been told they'll be refreshing it this summer.
The neighborhood, and the rue du Cherche-Midi are incredible. I could see more than a dozen restaurants looking out the living room window, including vegan and gluten free options. A Whole Foods style organic grocery is across the street. A big supermarket is 2 blocks away, and the Grand Epicerie of the Bon Marche (Paris's most gourmet grocery market) is just a block away. And the largest organic farmers market is 2 blocks away each Sunday. (Just google Raspail Market Paris).
More than half a dozen bus lines and 3 subway lines are within 2 blocks. But you're only about a mile from the Seine/Louvre/d'Orsay/Notre Dame. And the Luxembourg Gardens (Paris's Central Park) is less than a half mile away.
Building is safe and secure, and the neighbors quite friendly.
Thank you Simon, for a wonderful 2 months in Paris. Until next year!

Issue with damage deposit.
Overall the property was in good condition and met our expectations. The owner's agent told us the the bed linen would be changed weekly but only showed up once in the month we stayed to exchange it. The dryer doesn't work very well but my wife managed to wash sheets then hang them to dry in the apartment. The Paris agent tried to charge an additional fee for any departure before 08:00 as an early checkout fee. Very self-serving for the "hospitality" industry and not that early where I come from. We never saw the contract he claimed contained this clause.
Our primary complaint involves a phony claim against our damage deposit after the agent was sure we had left the country. Earlier in the day he confirmed that "Tout est bien" By the time we had landed in Toronto, a puncture about 1/4" in diameter and a scuff had appeared on a chair. Photos taken just prior to leaving clearly show the chair with no damage. I think they rely on scamming customers knowing that most won't be back or are unlikely to pursue a claim once they arrive home. After the initial exchange both the agent and the owner were dismissive of our complaint and refused any negotiation attempt. As a result we have initiated a dispute resolution process with Home away (VRBO) and alerted our credit card company.
Until this dispute is resolved satisfactorily I strongly caution anyone against renting this apartment or any other properties these people manage.

Easy holiday living close to many tourist attractions
This apartment is so comfortable and hassle- free making it ideal for a holiday. It has all modern appliances, a really comfortable bed and is in a secure and easily accessible building. It is very easy to keep clean. Everything you need for cooking is available. Its location is also ideal, being within walking distance of so many interesting places including the Luxembourg Gardens and Musee Rodin. The metro and bus stations are also close by. There are fresh food markets 5 minutes away that are held 3 times per week. A shopping trolley in the apartment is a bonus. I have no hesitation in recommending this apartment
