This was a very good experience. Ismael was very clear with his directions from the airport, which was a great help. When we arrived he was there, and showed us everything we needed. He has a little English, we had a little French and we managed just fine! The kitchen is so well stocked with everything you might need for cooking and dining - including butter in the fridge! There was a big basket of fruit too, which was really appreciated.

The apartment is small, but is so well designed that there seems to be plenty of space. You can make the bed back into a couch if you want more space, but we never did that. Good TV, with English news channels, and HMDI connection, so could use Chromecast to watch films etc. WIFI worked well. Very comfortable bed.

The location in the Marais district was very good - a few minutes walk to the Metro, a choice of supermarkets very close by, really nice bakery, cheese shop, organic shops etc all on the way from the Metro stop. There is a real sense of being in a local neighbourhood - nice bars, coffee shops, etc. The apartment is in an old building, with access through two coded doors, so it feels secure.

Would definitely recommend this apartment!
