A Jewel in the Heart of Marais - ABSOLUTELY!
Clemence welcomed us at the flat right on time and introduced us to a wonderful and luxurious apartment. She showed us all we needed to know about how to work everything and also provided a list to local eateries, which was helpful. Clemence was quick to respond to questions via text.
All inclusive pretty much sums up what is included - perfect location, elegant decor and furnishings, well appointed/equiped kitchen (complete with a Nescafe unit for coffees!), washer and drier, very comfortable bed and linens. Closets and shelves provide space for hanging and storing clothing.
The 2nd floor location is just down the street from Marche des Enfant Rouge (the oldest market in Paris) and lively cafes and restaurants. Although with such a welcoming "home" it is also a lot of fun to buy fresh ingredients and eat in.
Although the Marais is a bit noisy at night, the flat is just far enough off the main streets to provide a quiet location.
As for getting around, the Marais is a good location for extended walks to Notre Dame, the Louvre, Musee Orsay, Sacre Coeur, etc. Although we walked everywhere and did not take the Metro, the flat is close to several Metro locations.
