We really enjoyed our stay at Paul's apartment. We did not meet him as he was away but a friend of his flatmate was there to let us in at the agreed time. His flatmate Emerik was quick to answer any questions we had. All in communication was good. Paul's father arrived to collect the key again very prompt at the agreed time so we could catch our train home.

The apartment is lovely, full of house plants, views of Paris rooftops and a nice kitchen, and bathroom. It has a real Parisian garrett feel- nice furniture and lighting- very relaxing space. The beds are comfortable and nice shower. There is a tv but we could not figure out how to use it!

There is a Carrefour supermarket on the same road as the apartment which is very handy and a nice boulangerie nearby which sadly closed halfway through our stay for the August holidays. But plenty other choices a little further away.

We were a family of four, two kids aged 6 & 4. The bedroom up the ladder is definitely not suitable for kids as the windows do not have locks and they could easily open them and fall out as low down, same level as bed. Also the sliding hatch would be a bit dangerous for them if they woke in the night and needed to climb down. But it's a lovely small room for teenagers or adults- like a treehouse nest with three windows and wonderful views. The kids were very happy sharing the large double bed on the main floor- again they could have opened the window but it was a bit higher up so less precarious than the other bedroom.

The apartment was very handy for getting to Eurodisney- we just did a day trip and got back no problem by 1am.

Walking distance to everything in the Marais, and Rue Bretagne with all it's lovely food shops and a nice playground in a beautiful square. In fact there are playgrounds everywhere so great for young children.

We would definitely recommend this apartment, it's a great location, and was a lovely place for us to hang out in when the kids had gone to sleep- so much nicer than a hotel room by far. The kids had an amazing time playing camps in the roof eaves and didn't want to come home! Thanks Paul.
