A coworker and I stayed at Marielle's place for 5 nights and it was such a delight. Marielle was very quick to respond and provided clear and helpful information about the apartment and the neighborhood right from the start. She very graciously accommodated an early check-in time and stayed in close touch throughout our stay making sure that we had everything that we needed.
The place itself is an older, lived-in apartment which made it feel as if we were staying with close family friends as opposed to a B&B. As a note to those who may be physically impaired and require an elevator, there is an elevator in the building but you need to walk an additional flight up to reach the apartment. For those not physically impaired, it's worth the extra flight of stairs as the view from the larger bedroom is breathtaking and the balcony is an ideal spot to lounge and take in the sounds of Le Marais.
Speaking of Le Marais, the apartment's location can't be beat. The neighborhood was perfect for a New Yorker like me who enjoys a lively atmosphere with lots of food and shopping around every turn. We tried most of the recommended restaurants in Marielle's instruction booklet and enjoyed them all.
I highly recommend this apartment and it's host for anyone looking to experience life as a Parisian!
