Firstly, I have to mention that Vinciane was extremely understanding and accommodating when, due to an airline strike, we arrived at 2 in the morning instead of 1 in the afternoon. She was willing to wake up when we got in to let us into the apartment and was so gracious about it.

Secondly, as many of the other reviews have said, the apartment is a small studio that overflows with charm. Its location in Le Marais leaves it in easy walking distance of just about any place you'd want to go in Paris and it has easy access to line 1 of the metro for further exploration. For a short stay in Paris, I could not ask for anything more.

Furthermore, both Vinciane and her husband were very helpful when we got in, telling us where to find a good boulangerie as well as describing the (interesting and storied) history of the building and the quarter.
