The Dessins property is a great apartment - nicely decorated, very clean and very nice bathroom facilities. Perfectly situated in the Marais near the Republic, it is only 2 or 3 subway stops from Hotel d'Ville / Isle Saint Louis. Dessins is very nicely equipped with comfortable beds, towels and linens. The kitchen is totally updated with new appliances, dishware, microwave, coffee and Nespresso machines, etc. and more than enough of the basics for the 4 of us to prepare meals, etc. on the occasions that we did. The 2 bedrooms are adjoining, but this was not a problem for us. The apartment feels very secure as it looks onto an interior courtyard and is very quiet. There is also a wonderful little outdoor deck just off of the kithen, which was a nice surprise and quite lovely to sit out on to enjoy a glass of wine on during the quiet evening. This apartment is very comfortable and we would easily come back to stay here again. Ludovic was very helpful regarding all aspects of our stay at Dessins and we very much appreciated his assistance.
