we loved our stay in this gorgeous and spacious two-level penthouse apartment, with elevator, in beautiful le Marais. Large ventilating windows on both floors offer rooftop views, anchored by the Picasso Museum less than a block away. The apartment was very clean, well appointed and comfortable. Our arrival was delayed by several hours due to flights running late and communication with the host was a little balky, but it all worked out OK. Only real issue was the upstairs toilet, which couldn't be flushed due to a water valve that leaked if turned on. Prior reviews have mentioned problems with this toilet and I was told it had been repaired when I inquired about it before renting. It was more an inconvenience than a major issue, since there is a second toilet downstairs. That was the only blemish on an otherwise great experience.
