Marie's apartment had all the necessities for our two week stay in Paris and is ideally located for exploring the city. Taxis, buses and RER are easy to access, there are numerous cafes, restaurants and bakeries very close by and several grocery stores within a short walk. Marie and her husband Jean Paul were very friendly and welcoming hosts and made us feel like guests in their home. Marie was very generous by letting us borrow her DVD player, and some floor fans to cool the rooms on warm nights. I am grateful to Marie for making our stay in Paris a memorable one!
