We had a wonderful time staying at Jacques' flat in the Marais. The flat itself was lovely - it is not a huge space, but it was decorated beautifully and felt very roomy with only the two of us staying there. We had everything we needed and were particularly appreciative for all the little extras that made this place a pleasure to stay (a coffee machine, a working computer, and a washer - just what we needed). The location is also spectacular - plenty of bars, restaurants, museums and (brilliant) shopping nearby, but the neighbourhood and building also felt very safe and quiet.

Jacques and Jean Paul were also very accommodating - they were flexible in organising an arrival time, gave us great suggestions in the area, and Jean Paul even brought us croissants on our last day.

When we're next in Paris, we'll definitely be looking to book this place again. Highly recommended!
