We spent a lovely time in Carole's apartment last week. Located a stone's throw away from the trendy Marais district, the apartment is a quiet oasis after a day spent running around the busy capital!
Visitors looking to take in the sights of the city can take advantage of the metro which is just a 3 to 5 minute walk from the flat. There is also the cirque d'hiver at the end of the street for anyone who's interested. For fashion lovers, the flat is located just at the edge of the trendy Marais, a 3-5 minute walk away from the concept store Merci. Likewise, foodies will have a great time exploring the many quaint cafes, bistros, and bars dotting the area. And most restaurants are open even on Sundays!
The apartment is located at the ground floor (no need to climb those stairs with all your luggage!) and is enclosed within a courtyard. The house was well thought of and was furnished with comfort and convenience in mind. It comes well equipped with all the necessary cooking utensils and tools for dining in - a stove, a spice rack, pots and pans, utensils, glassware, cutlery and even scented candles for nice candlelit al fresco meals outside the terrace.
Carole and Stephane were gracious and warm hosts, making us feel at home without being intrusive. Prior to our arrival, tips and comprehensive details ( contact numbers, transport methods and costs, a brief history of the apartment and area, etc) were provided by Carole which was very handy and again, well thought of.
All in all, we had a lovely time at our "home away from home" in Paris! Please don't hesitate to book Carole and Stephane's flat if you have plans to visit Paris. The flat, and the experience is even better than in the pictures!
Merci, Carole et Stephane! We hope to be back soon!
