We arrived at the apartment and were greeted warmly by Malik and Natalie. Natalie provided us with instructions on all aspects of the apartment and gave us a recommendation for a restaurant for our lunch. We loved the cosy apartment- just right for the two of us and a very charming home base for our Paris trip. The nord Marais neighborhood has lots of dining options and nightlife at cafes. It's a short walk to the Arts et Metier metro station. You can hike down to the Seine and the left bank attractions easily or take the Metro if you are in a hurry. We would definitely return to the apartment on future trips.
