Sabine's beautiful Marais apartment was perfect for our family of 4. Conveniently located just a couple of short blocks from boulangeries, markets, and fruit stands--the apartment itself is on a quiet block and huge windows open on to an interior courtyard. Although we were there during high August heat, the open windows and fans kept us cool and comfortable at night. The apartment is very well-appointed and had everything one needs. The renovation of the apartment is exceptional and it was lovely to spend time there when we wanted a break from the busy Paris streets. Second floor walk-up is easy to manage with luggage as the stairwell is very large. The street is not lit after dark so we used our phones to light our way but never felt unsafe. Sabine herself is very accommodating and allowed us to check in early as well as store our luggage until our afternoon train departure. We will definitely make Sabine's place our first choice for accommodations on our next trip to Paris.
