We had a great stay at Pilar's place. She goes way beyond the expected to be a responsive and helpful host. There was food for breakfast and snacks waiting for us upon arrival. Pilar made sure we knew that she could be reached anytime, if needed. The apartment is well appointed, comfortable, and clean - with extra toiletries, towels, tea/coffee, maps, and such. Having two floors is very pleasant, including two bathrooms! The bed is very comfortable and there is space to spread around (considering the small size of the place), though you have to watch your head in places on the second level. The location is very central, with easy access to so much of what you want to see and do in Paris. At the same time, the apartment is quiet, and away from the hustle and bustle of busy Marais streets. Overall, an excellent experience. Thanks again to Pilar.
