Our stay in Jacques apartment was great - we were 20 minutes late but Jean-Paul was waiting for us with keys and guided us through the whole place and offered helpful information. The apartment is VERY well equipped. There is a bed on a mezzanine which at 5' 11" I couldn't fit into under the low roof, but there's a separate pull-out sofa-bed that we slept in comfortably for the full four nights. Whilst I'm talking about small things, the flat is small (this IS the centre of Paris after all), but everything is crammed in that you need. I also found that I didn't fit in the shower either, and had to stoop in. But I accept this for the benefit of having our own apartment in Paris for a week. My other half of 4' 11" had none of these problems!

The roof terrace outside is very pleasant and we enjoyed it every evening and occasionally in the mornings. Although it's overlooked, it still feels very private and all the more exclusive as no one else has one!

The location is great, there's plenty of bars and was a short walk from the metro. We arrived by Eurostar and it was only a quick change on the metro and a short walk to arrive at the apartment. It's also well situated for some nice restaurants (we ate at Chez Robert et Louise) as well as sights such as Louvre, Pompidou Centre, Notre Dame, Marche des Enfants Rouges and is easily accesible on the metro to the Eiffel Tower, Catacombs and other fun things.

On checking out, Jean-Paul arrived exactly when he said he would and even brought croissants for us! Everything was efficient and friendly and we'd certainly stay again.
