We were met and introduced to the flat with excellent explanations of the workings of the accommodation. This was followed up with helpful information of the area as well as how to access a taxi to the airport. The flat was contemporary in detail with everything we needed and more. The flat was very clean and tidy with all items, dishwasher, washing machine, espresso coffee machine and sound system all in top working order. The heating in the flat was more than adequate and we were always comfortable during our January stay of two weeks. The bed very comfortable. We felt secure in the flat as there were three locked doors to access before the flat door.
The flat is in an excellent location and although we did travel wider in Paris, Le Marais is a facinating area in itself. From the grandure of the official buildings to the shops along the quieter Rue St Honore we found something interesting and different everyday we explored, not just in the main streets but in the smaller streets as well.
The Metro is very close but there was little need for us to travel except to go to specific places like Bon Marche, Galeries Lafayette and Au Printemps (the 'soldes' were on) and back to places we really like such as Rue Cler. Just to wander the streets to discover restaurants, bistros and cafes in the area was more than enough. Everything we needed was really just around the corner. We did a little cooking in the well fitted kitchenette but used the stove and microwave mainly to heat prepared food items from a variety of sources near and far. This made life very easy when combined with outings to Michelin star restaurants and bistros on occassions.
All in all the flat made for another memorable stay in Paris and we will look forward to a return vist later this year.
