The apt. is situated at the heart of the Marais, in a very lively street. you feel like in the middle of Paris. It is well equipped (great coffee machine...), even though it was a bit small for us (two adults & two kids).only one toilet. Above all - John was very helpful, quick to reply even in strange hours and we could really feel that he cares about us and about making our stay comfortable. I wish a host like that everytime!
