We stayed at Jean-Marie's home in St. Germain for 3 nights. Communication with him was easy and he was highly responsive and available during our trip. He and his wife met us at his home to give us the keys and show us around, which we very much appreciated. The home was beautiful and as described, and perfect for our family of 5 (three children 5, 9, and 11). The neighborhood was safe and very convenient - we were able to walk to Notre Dame and the Louvre, and everything else was a short train ride away (RER and Metro lines are close by). They are close to lots of shops, cafes, grocery stores, and other conveniences. There were toys and the bedrooms were also spaced out nicely through the apartment, which meant everyone had a little privacy.
