Andre's apartment was absolutely perfect for our first visit to Paris. The location was better than we'd imagined--in a courtyard off a tiny, cobblestone rue en Le Marais. We loved the feel of the Marais and the very friendly locals. After spending time in some of the more bustling (and tourist filled) areas of Paris, we looked forward to "going home" to our hide-away to relax. Andre is the perfect host--very communicative, friendly, helpful with recommendations and sweet to leave us with plenty of water, fruit and coffee and espresso. After meeting us at the apartment and making sure we knew how to operate everything-he was off with instructions only to enjoy Paris and leave the key upon departure. Merci Andre. A bientot!
