Jacques was an excellent host.. so friendly, helpful and welcoming. He met us as planned for pick up and drop off of keys to the studio and was available to assist at any time (great communication despite the language difficulties!) The studio is small (as we expected from the pictures) but very clean, comfortable, has everything you would need and is in a great location. The wee outdoor patio is a bonus! The local area is very safe and so handy to lovely cafes, bars and markets and also only a short walk to the Seine and Notre Dame. A beautiful area in the Marais, full of character but also very quiet in the studio at night. We enjoyed our stay very much.. wish it had been longer than a weekend, but would definitely return!
