We were an extended family of 8 adults and we were so pleased to find an apartment that suited us in the heart of the Marais. Although we were intimidated by all the rules that Lory told us about when we first arrived we did eventually relax and enjoy our stay. I do however feel that this apartment would be unsuitable for families with small children because of the the rules and the quirkiness of the apartment. The loss of power supply was annoying at the time but once rectified it was fine.
