Great, comfortable home base from which to explore Paris. Marion's apartment is both stylish and cozy, with a bohemian, artistic style and full of interesting, whimsical personal touches. It was a fun place for our 10 and 8 year old kids, with entertaining things all around (dominos! Flip books! White board! Monchichi!), not to mention the loft beds. The neighborhood is happily not very touristy (full of hip young people and regular working folks) but is very central and easily accessible to all the sites. Beds are comfortable. The apartment is very quiet when the windows are closed. With open windows (which you'd want on a hot night) there can be more noise from the neighborhood. It wasn't a problem for us, but may not be ideal for light sleepers in summer. Thank you Marion, I wish we could stay longer!
