Our stay in Ivo's apartment was perfect. The apartment is located in the heart of the Marais with all its excitement and diverse life, yet the apt itself was a lovely quiet retreat above the busy fray of the area. It is comfortably and cleanly appointed, welcoming as a home but without the sense that we were having to live among someone else's personal things and habits. From the very first communication, Ivo was easy to correspond with and he was always quick to respond. His assistant Tatiana was also very kind in introducing us to the apt upon our arrival in Paris. The photo of the apt is accurate in its details but does not show the light-filled charm and restful warmth that are some of the wonderful qualities of the place. My husband, daughter, and I hope to stay at Ivo's again on our next trip to Paris.
