Everything, from the neighborhood to the flat, was excellent! La Marais is the perfect neighborhood to stay in while in Paris. Stephane's flat is in a perfect location - walking distance to small shops, bakeries, wonderful local restaurants. The flat itself is extremely clean, modern, and comes with all you'll need to have a perfect stay in the city. The Metro stop is less than a block away and is the perfect way to go visit the main tourist spots. We actually walked over to Notre Dame.
Stephane was an extremely gracious host. He gave us a detailed overview of the many amenities of his flat and then gave us a perfect recommendation for a local restaurant. We visited twice and can't believe the awesome experience we had.
We'll definitely be back!
