This is a well appointed, inviting space oozing with warmth and character like melted brie on a toasted baguette. There's great sunlight and people watching from the over sized windows and the location is absolutely stellar. The building has a lot of history and is well maintained. There was a good deal of construction in surrounding buildings at the time of our visit, which led to some unexpected early morning wake up calls. This comes with the territory of city living, particularly in the rapidly evolving Marais district, but something to be considered for those valuing quiet over location. All in all, I would highly recommend this apartment as an ideal hub in which to meander through the whimsical alleyways and magical side streets of this intoxicating, colorful, livable city.
