Alex was a great host. He was quick to respond to our messages and was quite accommodating when we had to extend our visit by one day due to the Paris train strikes.
The apartment itself was very clean and in a great location, as the other guests have mentioned. I would like to point out also that this apartment is on one of the best streets to hear live Jazz music. My girlfriend and I love Jazz and we were so happy to be located just a step away! The Marais is also an excellent neighborhood for nightlife - but don't worry, the apartment is well sound-proofed and you will not be disturbed when the windows are closed.
If you're looking to have a picnic along the Seine River, Alex was kind enough to recommend a great boulangerie (bakery), charcuterie (meat shop), and fromagerie (cheese shop) all in the Saint Paul neighborhood, which was right next door.
Thank you Alex, and I look forward to my next trip to Paris!
