Comments:The only thing about the towels that I would criticize is that there were no wash cloths. Two small towels and two bath towels only. Minor but I had to go buy a couple. I mentioned this in an email. People should be aware of the stairs. The last flight to the apartment is extremely narrow and could be treacherous for someone not used to climbing stairs in old apartment buildings. Adding someone carrying luggage could be dangerous if the climb is not done slowly and patiently. The building is very well maintained and clean. An absolute pleasure staying there.

Comments:Positive; A fantastic little apartment, comfy bed. Great location, yet felt very quiet. Negative; Stairs(especially after a long day and a few drinks) The shower, I am 34" waist if I was 36" I think I would have got stuck in the shower cubicle!!! A little difficult to get hold of manager. Overall a great choice and great value for money we hope to return some time in the future

Comments:The bed itself was okay, but the bedspreads seemed a bit musty. All the towels were fresh and clean. Really this apartment is a honey, and I would be very happy to stay there again The information book in the apartment could use some updating. And as a homeowner, I would advise finding a better drain cover for the bathroom sink. Sooner or later someone is going to drop something down there and mess up everything. This is just meant as friendly advice, not a complaint.

Comments:First let me say that this apartment is an excellent value for the money. The apartment was set-up well for travelers. Lots of places to store and hang things up. The kitchen was very small but had everything we needed for light cooking and the quality of the dishes and glassware was nice. The apartment was very quiet and a pleasure to stay in for five days. The location couldn't be better. There was some water damage visible in the bathroom and on the wall outside the bathroom door but that did not bother us. The floor is cold (we knew that from previous guests so we were prepared) and the material is odd. Slippers are necessary in my opinion (socks will get snagged by the flooring). One thing that could be "fixed" with the apartment was the heat setting for the hot water. It was scalding and a little tricky to control in the shower. Luckily we read the comments from the previous guests and were warned about burning yourself in the shower; they weren't kidding. We purchased a washcloth to place on the plate between the hot and cold water in the shower and that did the trick.

Comments:The location and value of this property is terrific. It is in the heart of the 5th, just minutes from the Pantheon, Luxembourg. St. Michel and the Marais are only 15 minutes away by foot. It is basically on the place de la Contrescarpe which is full of cafes and next to rue Mouffetard that has many bars and restaurants. The location is truly ideal. While the bathroom and kitchen are a bit small, I would recommend this to any single traveler or couple who are seeking to be in the middle of Paris and in a lively area.

Comments:I would rate much of the first group of questions "very good." We loved the apartment, where it was located, the lack of road noise or any other noise. Unfortunately, there had been some issues with water and a very poor paint job has been done. So one wall is very blistered and there are paint markings near the bathroom and in various other places. It's unfortunate, as there are fairly new chairs, tables, drapes. I have been amazed by the thoroughness of your company. The emails, the paperwork, the way you handle a security "deposit," travel insurance -- you have thought of it all to make things easy. But the book at the apartment and the apartment was the first thing Ben saw. And there are cross outs, hand written adjustments, the directions for the TV connections refer to the older equipment, not the current. This should all be updated in your excellent style. (If I had a printer, I would have been glad to do it -- I love working on projects like this!) So with no inventory, we ended up purchasing paper towels and toilet paper as they weren't in the kitchen cabinet nor in either closet that held that type of stuff. I did find them the day we left under the sink. These, obviously, are small issues. Thank you so very much for providing such good service. I had no qualms about renting from Vacation in Paris -- and for good reason!

Comments:Apartment was clean and comfortable. The location is excellent and we enjoyed our stay. Only minor complaint was next door neighbour played their piano/keyboard loud enough for us to hear until about midnight on a couple of nights, this was mainly irritating due to the number of times we were asked to keep the noise levels down and be considerate of the neighbours on the VIP website and also on the apartment documentation we recieved!

Comments:Bathroom: the soap/shampoo metal holder in the shower is full of rust or mould. It should be removed and replaced with a (small) plastic one, easier to clean. It rained hard on the day we arrived and water was dripping from the ceiling window even though it was closed. We did not attempt to open it, as it was too high. Instead we put a bucket underneath to collect the water, but the rain stopped one hour later, so we did not call the manager. It should perhaps be checked for future visitors. No.

Comments:1) Information on how to use cable TV and internet in the housebook is outdated. Instructions refer to equipment that is no longer present in the apartment, and we we didn't want to risk damaging the existing equipment in an attempt to connect. 2) The housebook noted that we could use the house phone to call the manager or make calls within France, or to the US, etc. Unfortunately, we could find no instructions on how to use the phone, which had no keypad and no dial tone. Pressing the little "lock" button on the phone did nothing. As Americans visiting only for a week, we had no cell phone service. We'd hoped to contact the manager about leaving our bags in the apartment until @11:00am on the day we were to leave, but we had no way of getting in touch with her. 3) On some pages of the housebook, the entry keypad number and house telephone number are wrong. 4) The light switches immediately inside the apartment door did not seem to work. 5) The showerhead leaks badly at the connection between the hose and the head. Can be quite messy to use. 6) Work was being done on the building roof during our stay. Roofers started hammering at @8:30am. Didn't bother us, but if the roofing project is extended, next tenants might need advance warning. Workers set up the ladder to the roof on the stairs just outside the apartment door. We had to move the ladder to get our luggage into and out of the apartment; otherwise, we squeezed by. Wonderful location - couldn't be better. Although the apartment was small, it was perfect for our needs, and a worthwhile alternative to a hotel. Your company was very efficient about providing payment receipts, forwarding the keys and instructions well in advance, and notifying me about receiving the returned keys. Thank you!

Comments:Best things about the apartment: it was very quiet. I am a light sleeper and have had trouble sleeping in other Paris apartments but there was no street noise or noise from the neighbors. Surprising considering how bustling the neighborhood is. I greatly appreciated VIP's willingness to help me get a refund of 50 euros due to the tv issues, and was grateful that the owner responded favorably and promptly.

(2) The shower head was attached to the wall by tape. Will give way shortly. Saturday morning their was a jack hammer taking up the tile in the court yard. Another tenant that evidently had a late Friday night expressed his dipleasure to the workman in French. Nice to know we all like our Saturday mornings quiet.

Comments:The apartment is small, but very functional. Everything worked - lights, refrigerator, coffee maker, etc. We really had no complaints. I believe it was better than a hotel stay would have been. It was a great value for our money. The ability to call the states at no cost is a big plus. If you are not in reasonably good physical condition, you probably should not rent this apartment due to the three flights of steep stairs you have to climb.

Comments:We had a wonderful experience in Paris, living in the community amongst the "locals". The apartment is in an ideal location, and we would not hesitate to stay in it again when in Paris, or to recommend it to friends. There were several minor issues with the apartment but these were inconsequential to our overall experience. The shower drain is running quite slowly and may soon need a clean out. More comprehensive instructions about the garbage would be handy(re bottles, recycling and trash ... and about the bins being in a little shed). I have sent the mailbox key via express post so you should have it very soon.(The key arrangement worked very well.) Also ... we have found your company to be efficient and professional and we will certainly recommending you to our friends ... THANK YOU for helping us have a great holiday!!!

Comments:The apartment was an absolute dream! It was the perfect size for a few days in Paris, the location was amazing, and the bed was comfy! It was so nice to have a "home" to come back to after hours of walking and sightseeing. There were great restaurants, On your arrival instructions, it states that the apartment key will be in the plastic container in the mailbox. We did not find that to be true. There was a clear, purple, plastic envelope with Armstrong written on it that had the apartment keys inside.

Comments:The bottle of wine was a very pleasant surprise (it was a good drop too!), so thank you for that. The apartment was tiny but that just added to its charm I think. The standard of cleanliness was excellent. We did not want for anything. We did find the instructions for the TV and wifi tricky but managed to work things out our own way. The towel warmer which we used for drying clothes was a boon. We were disturbed by noise from the courtyard, particularly on the weekend. Perhaps if the music had been to our liking we would not have noticed it. Anyway this was a minor annoyance rather than a major complaint - a price to pay for living in close prximity to so many other people. The location was perfect for us as it was close to metro stations and to innumerable restaurants and within walking distance of the many places we wanted to visit. The maps and guide books in the apartment were very useful too. We would like to thank VIP and the owner/manager of La Mouff for the preparation and thought that went into the apartment - it made our holiday in Paris a truly unique and positive experience. We found getting into the building easier to do than instructions suggested as there was no need for a password at all to get in. This was however after attempting to get into what we thought was the correct building because the external numbering of the buildings in the area was dificult to understand.

Comments:We had a great time and have no serious complaints. Recommending the apartment would depend on the age and condition of people. The steep stairs could be an obstacle for many people, and we would probably try to avoid that in the future. Overall, the apt. was very comfortable. I called to let you know that the directions regarding entry to the building were inaccurate and that the building lacked a number identifying it as 9 Rue Thouin. On the negative side, the TV was hard to use and the directions about it were not clear. Also, the kitchen is VERY small and has minimal refrigeration space. Washing dishes was awkward because of the hood over the stove. Again, we are not unhappy with our experience but want to note things that others might be bothered more by. We have been very happy with your service and with the fine information you give about the different properties. We would recommend your services wholeheartedly to anyone. No. Thanks again.

Comments:The apartment was tidy but was not particularly well cleaned. There was a dirty mark on the wall beside the dining table (it looked like a wine or coffee splash) which I removed quite easily - it had gone unnoticiced by the cleaner. The furniture had not been moved or cleaned under and the book shelf and fireplace were dirty. The linen was clean but tired and aging. The initial reaction to the apartment would have been better if the window boxes had some plants in them or had been removed altogether. The sight of dead plants and bare, dry soil did nothing to enhance the apartment. The apartment was in an excellent position for eating and sight seeing. We had a great time in Paris. The information and support from VIP was great and we would recommend your website to family and friends.

Comments:There is no security lock on the apartment's outer entry gate. I recommend you delete the entry code from the apartment details sheet because it is confusing and a little disconcerting to find less security in place than initially expected. The apartment is in excellent condition. There are flower boxes outside the windows, it would have been more welcoming if there were flowers in them or they were somehow "spruced up". We enjoyed having the windows open to let in light and air, but you may consider a sheer shade or curtain behind the drapes. For privacy we had to keep the drapes closed which blocked the natural light. We arrived around 0945, the cleaning service was there and he gave us a spot for our bags - when we returned the apartment was thoroughly cleaned and we were happy to be "home." The building was very quiet. The only thing we did notice was someone in our building or one of the other buildings adjacent to the courtyard smoked a lot of pot. Overall, this is a great apartment in a great location! I first learned of VIP from an internet search and ultimately chose VIP because a friend recommended it. We had a fabulous time in Paris and loved the apartment - it was a great home base for my daughter's first visit! Thank you.

I would think twice before booking this apt on that score (although when everything else was so good ...) Also re: wine - I only drink white wine so - as much as I appreciated the thought - I gave the bottle to a friend as a present. I was very happy to do this as she had helped me out. Your coordination over the entire planet is excellent. I will certainly recommend VIP and I look fwd to my next booking.

The accommodations were enough room for the two of us to be comfortable. We wouldn't hesitate to use VIP again. We had a great trip.

Comments:The area was great. No number on the building to help find it. The code box to open the gate was pulled out and only wires left. Found the right mailbox with the key. Apt clean, good bed but paint chippings on floor in corner of bedroom. Very disappointed that refrigerator was broken. Had been broken for at least 3-3 months. Unable to keep things cold. Portable cooler worked occasionally. Noises at night coming from other tenants yelling out. Loved the warming bar in the bathroom. Services from stateside were wonderful. Would use your company again but would spend more money for a nicer apartment. Our trip was great. Repair items that are broken or do not work. Place # of building so we can find the building and repair the access code box. Refrigerator should have been working or at least buy temporary one that you plug in until you were able to find the right built in size. With this apartment, please inform new renters that not only is there not a lift but the staircase is narrow with uneven steps. You must be in very good shape to lug up your suitcases from the ground floor. Your service stateside was efficient and professional. On site some disappointments. It however did not take away from the wonderful time we spent in Paris. We loved the wine.

Comments:The reason we probably wouldn't use the apt again is that it was kind of small. Not your fault -- you stated the square footage clearly. But we'd recommend it to friends who wouldn't mind the size. The refrigerator was not working when we arrived and the problem was never resolved. We were very surprised, upon our return, to find that the VIP office in NJ was unaware of the refrigerator problem. They should have been told immediately. Ideally, the problem should have been resolved immediately. If not, we should have been offered a rebate instead of having to ask for it. After all, one of the primary reasons to rent an apartment instead of a hotel room is the opportunity to eat "at home." We couldn't.

Comments:Everything was perfect this time. Last time there was a problem with the internet and also a light missing, which made it hard to use the kitchen. This time all was in fine form. We had a wonderful stay. The neighborhood is wonderful given the proximity to the Mouffetard Market and the Jardin des Plantes and the Pantheon and how easy it is to get to the Seine and Notre Dame, etc. I would return to this apartment in a heartbeat. It's also quiet.

Comments:the apartment was great- towel rack, heating, hot water, french press, . it was convenient for shopping , metro and proximity to sites. Just a note that the spiral stairs are designed for small suitcases and nimble occupants. It beats a step class at the gym!!! thank you for a wonderful time

Comments:The apartment was exactly what we needed for the stay. The directions on how to use the keys were a little confusing. The keys to the apartment were in the mailbox, but not in a plastic container; so we had no plastic container in which to put them when we left. The outside security door was broken, and kind of hanging there. Someone did enter the building one night and try to convince us to buzz them in. We felt safe up to that point. The TV was difficult to use, but we hardly ever watched it. More information about convertors and plug adaptors for the apartment would be helpful. The plug adaptor I brought along that I was assured would work for France, was incorrect. Airport Connections was wonderful!

Comments:Answers to last two qeustions were maybe. The outer door was broken. There were no lights in the hallway leading to the stairs. There was 1 roll of toilet paper. Your policy to make people buy toilet paper when they rent for 3 nights is ridiculous. Great bed

Comments:Very impressed with the service from VIP, including the help from Olivia when the internet and TV would not work. She promptly responded and was very professional. I absolutely loved the apartment and have already booked another week in the Spring. The location could not have been better----quiet, yet near all the shops and Metro. I feel the apartment price is a great value.

Comments:The TV wasn't working, it said 'No Signal,' which was fine with me- the internet worked for 4 of my 9 days there and that's the one thing I'd like to see working ALL the time when I return...so perhaps someone should come out to check the internet connection before people arrive, so it's in working order. I didn't want to waste a day waiting for someone to come and help, so went to the corner cafe with wireless and that was fun so no problem. Love the neighborhood, the apt was cozy...someone large might have a hard time in the shower though, I had to keep my elbows close in, but it worked fine for me...I will definitely return for a longer stay...loved the bottle of vino upon arrival.

Comments:there was a lot of noise on 2 nights/mornings. unfortunately one of these nights was the night before we left. we had very little sleep due to doors banging and loud voices within the apartment block. the stairwells are very steep and need some repair as there is a lot of damage to the walls. the security gate at the front was damaged (looked like it had been hit by a car) and did not work. one of the reasons we chose the apartment was because the security aspect was promoted. this did not create a good impression when we first pulled up in the taxi. we both thought What have we rented here! the courtyard was not functional. the photos on the internet portray the unit in a better light than it actually is. having said this, the comfortable bed, location and the generally quite environment made up for this. we would stay there again with some improvements. the fridge was frozen over when we arrived and needed to be cleaned and defrosted. it was adequate but a frost free fridge would be a better inclusion. maybe some english DVD's would be good as the only channel with english we could get was the news channel.

Comments:A couple of minor things would be great. A small beach top oven that is able to grill and bake would have been good. A mat on the ground between the chairs and TV would be great. Being that you have internet TV it would have been great if more english channels where available to watch (several where blocked). As I said these are minor things in general things were great. Are you aware that the street gate entrance is unsecure? It open and closes but the bar it is meant to lock onto is detached from the wall. I.e. it doesn't and is not able to be locked (secured).

Comments:The reason for the "nos" is the 4 flights of stairs. More hooks for towels and soap dish in shower would help in b.r. Was VERY thankful for fan as it was 95deg while we were there. Thank you for the bottle of wine. I was very impressed with the service provided by VIP. The staff was very helpful and well-organized. I would use you again if I go to Paris and highly recommend you to my friends.

Apartment suited for active couple that can manage narrow steep staircase and slim enough for the bathroom shower. Great for couples looking to save money on accommodation.
