Paris Apartment Left Bank, Elegant and Quiet

Overall:
We like the property very much. We had stayed there before.
Enjoyed Most:
It feels like our home in Paris.
Surrounding Area:
Shops were friendly (little grocery store and fruit stand). Also there are some very good small resturants near by.
Tips or Restaurants:
Walk the streets around the apt. As my wife says, if it looks good, it is good (restaurants). We didn't cook much except breakfast but found the kitchen very well equipped.
Directions:
Just took a cab from the airport.

Overall:
This was a repeat visit for us. We love the apartment, and it was as excellent as always.
Enjoyed Most:
The location, the comfort and space of the apartment, and the decorating and furnishings.
Enjoyed Least:
The bathroom for the main bedroom is a little small and would be greatly improved if there were somewhere to hang a couple of towels to dry.
Surrounding Area:
The proximity to the Musee d'Orsay and other sights, the quiet and atmospheric surrounding streets (which were convenient to many areas but largely away from tourists), the specialty food shop across the street
Tips or Restaurants:
We recommend the restaurants Le Petit Cour and La Mediteranee and the specialty food shop across the street (don't remember the name).
Directions:
The directions were fine.
Check In Out:
Annabella, the keyholder, was very nice and helpful. She does not speak English, though, so it's very helpful to have at least one person in your group who can speak French!

Overall:
We thought everything about the apartment was perfect. The "view" was of the inner courtyard, which meant the apartment itself was bright and very quiet. Very spacious and comfortably furnished living room and master bedroom with very French character. Well-equipped kitchen. The photos on the website are completely accurate!
Enjoyed Most:
Its location could not have been better a couple of blocks from the Musee D'Orsay, a 5-minute walk across the Pont Royal to the Louvre, a 5-minute walk in the other direction to the Rue du Bac metro station. Close to excellent bistros, a great bakery and a Monoprix supermarket.
Enjoyed Least:
Somewhat confusing instructions connecting to WiFi (pronounced "weefee" there) and impossibly long password with a typo - but eventually we succeeded!
Surrounding Area:
One really felt as though one were living in an upscale Parisian neighbourhood. All of the amenities were close by. A couple of excellent restaurants - particularly "La Bonne Excuse" just up Rue de Verneuil - were a couple of minutes' walk away.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Central location in the 7th Arrondissement of Paris within easy walking distance to all the sights (except maybe Montmartre).
Tips or Restaurants:
With a supermarket and pharmacy nearby, there's no need to bring household items. Aadaptor(s) for European electrical outlets to charge phone or iPad should be brought, though presumably could be purchased there as well. Although the apartment doesn't have laundry facilities, there's a same-day wash-and-fold laundry down the street that charges 18 Euros for 2.2 kilos of clothes, so one needn't overpack! There is a large collection of recent English-language Paris guides on the bookshelf, so no need to bring guidebooks. In addition to "La Bonne Excuse", which was our favourite restaurant, on the other side of Rue de Verneuil was a good restaurant called "Six Mars" or something similar - a reference not to a date but to the southern French town where the owner came from (apparently) - on Rue St. Simon (just to the north of St. Germain and a block west of Rue du Bac) was a very nice restaurant popular with Parisian locals called "L'Affable".
Directions:
The directions were very straightforward. After one phone call, Annabella, the very friendly and helpful person on site, was there at the front door when our taxi pulled up. Unless one has a good French accent, one might want to practise pronouncing "Verneuil" so taxi drivers don't give you a blank stare it's "VAIR-noy" sort of!
