You are right I the heart of the Marais. 100 m from great bistros! The place itself is SUPER SAFE, on a small cozy side street that's quiet at night. The main entrance makes you feel like you are entering an old castle. Giles's unit seems MUCH larger than it is, has the same stone wall, exposed beams, rustic charm. It's fully equipped with all you need. My and my husband spent Christmas there. We COULD not recommended the host or place more. Absolutely fabulous! Thx! Chad and Dan
