This apartment is tucked away in a courtyard on street level. While the view is of the courtyard and people,in theory, could look in, they would need to have the code to get into the courtyard. At first the place feels oddly laid out with 4 different levels and a tiny door to get in. But the feeling quickly goes away and the place feels comfy, protected and so quiet. The building is on a square set around a park which is beautiful. Close to everything. Cafe Hugo is right next door (the apt is in the back of the building, through 3 locked doors so you’re far removed) and is convenient and has great food. Location is excellent with Le Marais at your feet. Host was super responsive…we had a problem with the lock and they sent someone over immediately who fixed the problem and was respectful and kind. Impressive! The bedding and beds were wonderful. The kitchen new and modern. We would stay here again .
