The location of the place is great. The building itself is run down and you have to walk through the garbage cans when getting to the apartment so it smells a bit. If you go in the summer, expect it to be very hot. There is not much air that goes through the apartment. The place was clean and the guy who checked us in gave us a lot of very helpful information about the city like where to eat, etc. Stephanie is easy to communicate with regarding plans. Overall, the apartment itself was a bit disappointing but Le Marais has great restaurants and shops.
