Christine's apartment was wonderful. Located in one of the original 1600's mansions in the Marais, just a few blocks from Notre Dame, it is within walking distance of all of sights in central Paris. (The Metro and busses were close as well.) The bedroom and living areas are very nice size. The kitchen is well appointed. It was an awesome place to come home to after a day of sightseeing. As soon as you stepped through the carriage doors, the noise and crowds faded away. It is located on the upper level of the building accessed via a beautiful stairway. Christine is great with communication. She met with us a couple of times to make sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.
