We can't thank Marc enough for a truly unique and wonderful experience! He was so helpful and quick to respond, from my first inquiry throughout the whole process. I can say with certainty that as a host he made our trip exceptional and we felt taken care of every step of the way. The house was perfect in it's comfort, style, and function for our family of 6. The location was perfect, accessible to many of the traditional tourist destinations, but nestled in a wonderful little neighborhood surrounded by the best farmer's market and gourmet shops right outside our door. It was also sparkling clean and had extra linens and pillows which is always a bonus. The handbook that he leaves in the house is a great resource, not only for the house management, but for acclimating to the neighborhood, getting around, and inside information into all the wonderful cafes, and restaurants in the area. We felt so safe in the neighborhood and it was really a quiet oasis in the heart of a wonderful neighborhood. If you have the opportunity to take a food tour of the neighborhood with Marc - do it! It was a highlight of our trip and was a perfect start to getting a history of the neighborhood and a inside look into the best cheese shops and bakeries and gourmet shops right in walking distance. In summary - One of the best trips! - you should book without hesitation - you will be happy! Thanks again Marc!
