Yves was a wonderful host! We were in contact on WhatsApp to arrange check-in, and communication was a breeze. In advance of our arrival, we told him our flight would land at noon so we asked if we could drop our luggage before the 5pm check-in and he happily obliged. When we arrived in the middle of the afternoon, he was absolutely delighted to announce that the previous guests had left very early in the morning and he was able to arrange an early cleaning service, so the apartment was actually ready for us! After traveling for 15 hours, this was the best news ever. Yves clearly cares about his guests, always checking in to see if we needed anything, giving us tips about the neighborhood, etc. We love Le Marais and this apartment is perfectly situated steps from La Bastille, Place des Vosges, many charming shops, bistros, and restaurants. The apartment itself has all the modern conveniences - it’s not often you will find a dryer in Parisian homes! We couldn’t have been happier with Yves’s place and we would absolutely book it again the next time we come to Paris.
