We loved staying at Pierre's flat near Le Marais. The location was ideal and the price was very good for Paris. Our little dog came with us too! We were all extremely comfortable and very, very happy! The apartment is quite big for city standards and is on the ground floor just off of the beautiful (and protected) inner courtyard. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need, except an oven. We certainly didn't miss an oven though as we ate mostly at the incredible restaurants all over the city. We had plenty of towels, shampoo, soap, and extra blankets to keep warm in the Paris winter. The bed was quite soft, so if you have people in your party with back pain, they may want to consider sleeping on the futon bed in the living room instead. There are three bed options in the flat--the futon, the daybed and the bed in the bedroom. We made coffee with the provided coffee machine which was a great way to start the day. Highly recommend!
