We couldn't have asked for a better location. Le Marais is a wonderful base for exploring Paris. So many cafes and bistros nearby and easy access to the metro. Once I got over the disappointment of the living area being much smaller than it appears in the photo, I was able to appreciate that the finishes in the flat are quite nice and the apartment is well cared for (the light gray love seat is sized for small children and it has no legs so it's a little awkward in that it sits on the floor). Really, though, for a family of 4, it had all the space we needed. The curtain for the loft sleeping area has been removed, but other than that, the flat was as represented in the photos. The pillows were kind of a bummer - so flat -, but it was nice that the apartment is so quiet at night. Fridge was stocked for us with some fruit juices and milk, and there were several guide books, which we appreciated. Would not hesitate to book here again, but would pack my own pillow. :)
