The description of this apartment states that it is bright and cozy. We agree with the bright...but cozy denotes small and intimate. This place is amazingly spacious! The two bedrooms are at separate ends of the apartment and big, particularly the "master" bedroom. There is no hotel in Paris with a room like that, at least not at a reasonable cost. As for the bathroom, we LOVED the split shower and toilet, allowing the three of us staying more flexibility to maneuver. The kitchen is also sizable, and we enjoyed the breakfast table. Finally, we really liked having all the comforts of usable appliances.

In terms of location, if your plans are to stay around Le Marais, look no further. The apartment is three blocks from Place de Voges, four blocks from Bastille Market, six blocks from the Musee Picasso, and short walks from all the choice shops and restaurants in this great neighborhood of Paris. There are two metro stops close by if you want to get away to other parts of the City.

Finally, Virginie and her son Quentin were incredibly responsive and gracious. Virginie answered my inquiry about renting the apartment right away and kept in touch right up until we arrived in Paris. Once there, Quentin took over and quickly addressed some small issues we had accessing WiFi in the place.

We really hope we can stay here again!
