Prior to our arrival, Claire & Xavier sent us clear guidelines on how to get to their flat. Once there, they gave us a warm welcome and answered practical questions promptly and precisely. The flat is centrally located, easy of access by metro, and close to post office, bakeries (note the plural), grocery stores, cafes and restaurants, and the museums and sights of the Marais. The apartment is well appointed, tastefully decorated, comfortable, and quiet. We felt at home immediately and look forward to booking it again when we next visit Paris.
