A wonderful experience!

My wife and I stayed in this delightful apartment for 30 days in late 2010. We are frequent visitors to Paris and have rented several apartments in the past. With that preamble, we must say that our stay in this rue de Levis apartment was one of our very best experiences ever. Why? Three reasons. First, the apartment is spacious, comfortably furnished, very bright (with large front windows and high ceiling) and has the most well equipped kitchen we've ever seen in a rental apartment (the owner is a former cooking professional). The bedroom is very comfortable and the adjacent bath/dressing room is huge. (There is a bonus WC downstairs with toilet and sink.) In addition, there is a separate washer and dryer...fairly rare in Paris. Second, the neighborhood is wonderful. If you are looking for touristy Paris, the 17th is not the place to stay because it is an authentic residential neighborhood that allows one to savor Paris as the locals do...complete with a street market right at your front door. (Don't worry, the apartment is very quiet). Beautiful Parc Marceau is within walking distance. We found the locals helpful, welcoming and friendly, as we usually do in Paris. And, the metro is a few steps away, making it easy to get to all the landmarks and museums. Third, the owner, who actually resides in the apartment a few months a year, is delightful. She was very responsive, thoroughly professional and a genuinely nice person. This apartment is a real "find" and we highly recommend it whether you are a first time or returning visitor to Paris. We look forward for another stay in this wonderful apartment, hopefully, sooner than later!
