Jacques' apartment is in the most amazing spot...so central to amazing restaurants, great cafes and excellent shopping. And the 'river bus' stop is only a short walk away as well...and this gives access to all of the sights of Paris and was a relaxing way to tour around.
There was no problem with meeting up to grab the key and despite Jacques' English being limited we got all of the info we needed.
The apartment is small...but as you'd expect in Paris...we spent very little time in it.
We were so pleased that we decided upon staying in the La Marais area...and we would very strongly recommend it as a funky, vibrant spot to be when you visit Paris.
