Alexandra's place is located in the heart of Le Marais in a lovely old building. The bedroom and private bathroom are small but we also had access to the kitchen/living area, which made a big difference. Alexandra communicated very well throughout and was very kind in allowing us to leave our luggage in the unit until late on the afternoon of departure. This made a huge difference to our day as we did a lot of sightseeing that would not have been possible lugging our bags around. We loved the two cats - missed our cats back home) . The two flights of stairs are a disadvantage if you have a lot of luggage but we didn't mind them at all. Cathy, the housekeeper, is really lovely!
