Each apartment is individually owned and listed on VRBO.com, and while I can't vouch for all the owners, my landlords in Paris couldn't be more gracious or obliging.
If you're interested in renting the apartment, here's the link. The building is aging and has a few quirks, but the apartment is beyond charming. Here's the link to more pictures on my flickr page.
As you'd expect, the rates are lower in winter, when the airfares are also on special. I flew to Europe on Air France with a last minute deal spotted on their website.
The next place I'd like to go is Barcelona.

Such a lovely apartment. I saw the other pictures on your flickr page and am in love with the green velvet settee. I have packs of Gitane's scattered all over my home, my friends love them. They take them down to our Springhouse and come back an hours later!!
Thank you Tina! You are SO generous to share this info with us! Magical....Europe is simply magical! I've been day dreaming of returning to Italy these days. Perhaps I'll find a sweet little apartment through this site :)

Oh how wonderous. I'm officially green with envy
I use to live in an amazing apartment in the 5th across from the Jardin des Plantes. I love the traditional Parisian apartment buildings with the big wooden doors leading into the little courtyard and concierge.
I miss it!

c'est magnifique! :) this literally just made my heart twist inside my chest... so beautiful and so charming... i can't wait to go back! xo have a wonderful time!
Oh goodness! I think I'm in love!! I've never thought of vacationing that way. I haven't been to Paris since 1998!

Thanks for the information! Looks to have been a perfect locale so you really felt that you were "living" in Paris.
i'm totally bookmarking the apartment link for the future. :) thank you so much!!
You can also rent a flat with Homelidays.com or flipkey.com (it's Tripadvisor). You deal directly with the owners and like on Ebay there is feedback from previous lodgers.
I always rent my flat like that in Europe and i've been always happy.
I am determined to go to Paris within a year of graduating in May. Looking at your pictures on flickr makes me swoon! gorgeous, gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous.
