The apartment is lovely - comfortable, spacious and well-decorated. There was room for each of my 3 daughters to get some time alone time and a wonderful joint living space to share. We cooked in the well-stocked kitchen and enjoyed proximity to Marais and Bastille. The immediate neighborhood is terrific with lots of bars and restaurants and a diverse population. The apartment itself is on a quiet courtyard, despite being in the middle of a lot of action. Our hosts were welcoming and helpful. We would love to be in Paris and stay there again.
