We really enjoyed our stay at Marie's place. The apartment was beautiful. There was tons of storage for our clothes and suitcases. The larger bedroom had room for two cribs which made it ideal for our family. It was also extremely quiet and cool. The kitchen was lovely and the common room was large. The apartment is directly over some bars and restaurants and it does get very noisy in the common room and second bedroom at night. However, it was usually just loud talking (and since I don't speak French, I found that it was kind of a white noise that did not keep me or my kids awake). The location is very central. It was close to public transportation and easy to walk to all of Paris' many attractions. Marie was super easy to communicate with via email. Any issue we had was promptly dealt with (for example we blew a fuse accidentally, emailed Marie and she responded within a few minutes). I would definitely stay at the apartment again.
