Francois' lovely Marais apartment was in a PERFECT location - there are loads of good restaurants and shops nearby - not to mention falafel and bakeries. The apartment was as advertised - beautiful, sunny, and clean. It fit our needs perfectly - one couple and two single sleepers. Francois was also very helpful and efficient to deal with! The only negative was that it was quite noisy and warm (so the windows had to be open) - but the beautiful Paris weather was worth it!
