Marine's apartment is fantastic and even more beautiful in person than in the photos. The location is incredible...within a 5-minute walk to two metro stations, and close to a fantastic bakery recommended by Marine, situated just a block away (Maison Landemaine). The area is quite busy, with numerous boutiques, cafes and restaurants, but once you enter the beautiful double doors to the property, you are transported to a tranquil courtyard oasis, seemingly a world away from the vibrant city just outside.

The apartment itself is a beautiful balance of old world elegance and contemporary design, with hardwood floors, high ceilings, beautiful moldings, a marble fireplace, and brilliant artwork. The rooms are cozy, well appointed, and Marine has thought of every necessity to make you feel right at home.

Marine was great from the moment I booked her place for our visit to Paris. She offered easy to follow instructions for check-in, and thoughtful explanation for our use of her apartment. A wonderful book and bottle of wine welcomed us to Marine's home, and we were sad to say goodbye after a fantastic weekend.

I would not hesitate to book Marine's apartment again, and hope to do just that on our next visit to Paris! Thanks again for everything, Marine! You are an amazing host.
