We traveled to Paris for a vacation with another family. In total, it was 4 adults and 4 children. We had a great time. The house was perfect for our little adventure. With three bedrooms and two full baths, it was more than enough to accommodate our group. The full kitchen allowed us great breakfasts, with plenty of housewares to get the job done, including a dishwasher and clothes washer. There was an additional clothes washer, dryer, and clothesline in a downstairs laundry room. The laundry access was very convenient for our extended stay. It was comfortable and clean with great internet service. Room was not an issue with a great den to lounge in and a large dining table. Here's the best part. The house is nestled in a vibrant and very accessible location. It's centrally located to the sites of Paris as well as the transportation hubs (Gare du nord, metro/RER stops, airports, etc.). It made getting to these places very easy and direct. In regards to Paris, this was amazing. There's a few Metro stops within a few minutes walk. This allows you access to la tour Eiffel, le Louvre, Sacre Couer, Versailles, etc. It's a quick and inexpensive ride anywhere in the city. I would also add that being in le Marais allowed quick access to restaurants, grocery, bars, etc. The neighbors and neighborhood was incredible. Everyone said bonjour et bon soir. Safety wasn't really a concern although we adhered to standard precautions - locking doors and windows. The building has a security system and key to access the lovely garden and building entry, in addition to the access to the stairwell, then the apartment, so there's like three layers of security. I would mention that there isn't air conditioning but being there on days into the 90's, the large windows that open provided a cross breeze that cools the apartment. It wasn't a problem. About our host, she's a very nice person with competent help (we had someone else greet us). She was very communicative and responsive. Leading up to the trip, after the trip, and during the trip, her instructions were very helpful. Talk to her and you will find out. Thanks, Lory!
