The location is great: you're in one of the most pleasant parts of the Marais, among galleries and nicer shops but not the tourists and chaos you find a bit closer to the river; and the unit faces a pleasant courtyard on one side and a quiet block of Charlot on the other. The apartment is a bit compact for a three bedroom (one bedroom lacks a bathroom), but has more warmth and character than the photos suggest- well appointed and interesting without feeling like someone else's home (bit of a hybrid of a nice hotel suite and an apt). All in all excellent, one fop the best we've rented in many trips to Paris.
