Our booking with Ariane went smoothly and she was quick to respond to our questions. Raphael, who met us and introduced us to the apartment had excellent English and left no stone unturned which was very reassuring! Tatiana was prompt and helpful when handing over the keys. The apartment was exactly as listed and very tastefully decorated. Being on the 6th floor, noise was not an issue.The neighbourhood of Le Marais was very colourful and busy during the day which we enjoyed. A meander through the nearby streets revealed some interesting shops. We really appreciated having Michael Middleditch's Paris Map guide.
