Quiet, roomy, airy apartment convenient to Metro stop, grocery stores, public market (3x per week), restaurants, and an amazing public park. There was an issue with getting past the building’s inside locked door (multiple levels of security at the outside gate and outside door and apartment door were all good with instructions we were given). We only got in the first time because a pizza delivery guy got us buzzed through the inside building locked door. Once we were in the apartment we had access to the security fob which let us in all three of the building security points. But there must be a better way to get folks inside the first time before they have the fob. The bathroom has a tub without a curtain or door so you have to be careful not to get water on the floor. But that’s pretty standard issue with French apartments (from a US perspective). Hosts were great to communicate with both in French and English and helped us figure out the complexities of trash disposal both in the building and in Paris (food waste / compost is disposed of in a public bin down at the corner across from the bakery). You do have to accept that you are deep in the quiet, safe, residential 15th arrrondissement, which was ideal for us, but might not be if you like nightlife. The cabbie was a little nonplussed that an American couple was staying in the neighborhood. Metro tickets are easily purchased through the iPhone Wallet and Metro is an easy 6 min walk.
