Laurent was super quick and responsive and came to meet us within minutes when we arrived. The apartment is clean and nicely redone with modern touches. Great added perks/amenities such as umbrellas (we visited during a weekend of rain) and coffee. Our only complaint would be that none of the bedrooms had windows, which was fine but unexpected. (Black out rooms let us sleep in and get some serious rest!) and lastly the apartment is not exactly in the Marais as listed, it is about a 15-20 minute walk north-west. The area is a bit shady (especially for women) at night. Lots of prostitutes on the street corners and peep-shows, toy shops etc. Five girls on this trip however never felt unsafe. Would stay again!
