I stayed at Marlene's place for 10 nights and it was perfect!! The location is perfect - you can walk anywhere in Paris, it is super central and located in the middle of very cool area with lots of restaurants and young people. Marlene was very nice and warn and helped me with anything I needed. She was also very flexible with check in and out times which was very helpful. Overall I really recommend staying at her place and will definitely do so when I'm in Paris next.
