Himanshu and Diane were incredibly responsive and helpful from first contacting me after I made my reservation to answering questions about the apartment. The apartment was exactly as advertised and looked just like the pictures. It's comfortable, charming, and has everything you need, just as listed. I was drawn to the photos because of the quirky and spare decor--they really have done a nice job of outfitting the place well without cramming a lot of random stuff everywhere, as with many like many other rentals.

The apartment is also quiet and very secure--even though it's on the first floor, you have to get through several exterior doors to access the courtyard, and the door that opens onto the street is code-protected.

The location is fantastic. I've stayed in the Marais before, and it's still my favorite part of Paris. You're near metro stops on a very convenient line, so you can get around the city easily.

I would return to this apartment and would recommend it to others.
