We had a wonderful 4 night stay in this beautiful Marais apartment, which was very central and also very quiet – a peaceful oasis in the heart of the hip and cool Marais. There are lots of shops (boulangeries, grocers, chocolatiers), cafes, boutiques “on your doorstep”, and Metro stops are a couple of blocks away (Hotel de Ville and Rambuteau), so it is very central. Anne kindly sent us extensive tourism information & tips before our visit, and her daughter met us on arrival and showed us everything. The apartment was very clean and well prepared for our visit, and the 3 bedroom layout was spacious (perfect for 2 parents with 2 teens!). The mattresses were very comfortable. Bathroom and kitchen specs are brand new and of high quality. There were plenty of large bath towels, and new shower & shampoo gel, as well as new hand soaps for our use. The toilet/sink is a separate “room” from the shower/sink/laundry room, which is most convenient when you have family of four. As it is the owner’s home, there are of course, their personal belongings, but all very organized and uncluttered. Two of the bedrooms have built in desks and chairs, which was a helpful place to put our belongings. The master bedroom is very comfortable, and Anne had cleared a small shelf and drawer in the wardrobe, which was appreciated. We used one of the other bedrooms to hang our clothes and to place additional things. Two small bedside tables in the master bedroom would be most helpful, to put glass of water, book, phone, etc. Lighting is divine in the whole apartment. Overall, we were absolutely delighted with our stay and would highly recommend this gorgeous apartment. Anne was most kind and responsive in her communication. We would be thrilled to stay here again….maybe we will be so lucky ☺
