I was a little late and I didn't have a print-out of the appointment so was a little stressed. I was greeted by a cool door guard who told me "hey relax, it's Monday morning". Right there I thought "welcome to France".

The young lady who examined my papers was friendly and very efficient. The online requirements are very clear (though very strict about not accepting email/online printouts) - I had all the documents ready so it went fast and smooth. I got my visa in the afternoon the say day!
