  My girlfriends and I stayed at Rue Greneta in mid-September and had a wonderful time. The apartment was well appointed,spacious and in the perfect location by the St-Denis/Rue Montorgueil pedestrian walk where you can find fabulous patisseries, boulangeries and restaurants. I would also highly recommend using Elysee car service as well. They were prompt, friendly and efficient. Would definitely use this agency again.

  My family of 4 stayed at Greneta in August 2009 for a week. We had a great time. The welcome was excellent, the flat has more than adequate space and high standard accomodation. . We have two teenagers 19 and 14. Its very convenient to explore Paris and the neighbourhood safe. We walked around the area late at night most nights. We would have no hesitation going back.

  My family of five, two adults and three boys, 14, 9, and 4 stayed at Greneta for eight days in late March. The apartment was more than adequate in space and sleeping arrangements for five. I slept better there than I do at home, the apartment is quite secluded and quiet, clean, efficient, and uncluttered. Alexandra was right on time and very helpful, and though I was prepared to speak French Alexandra speaks both English and French. Prior to our arrival every question I had was promptly answered by Michele or one of her associates. We fell in love with the Rue Montorgueil and all of the vendors Boulangers and many pleasant people that we encountered there. I tell people that it was a very un-touristy area where you can get a better sense of how Parisians live. We loved going to the market every day, everyone was so pleasant and polite. Love the French people for their graciousness,etiquette and common civility. The late March weather was very intense which made returning to Rue Greneta even more special. Our children were quite comfortable there and didn't want to leave. We used Elysee Car both to and from the airport, couldn't have been more convenient.

  While we were researching the option of a vacation rental, we came to rely heavily on the comments of guests who came before us, and dearly hoped that they were true. In the case of the Greneta apartment, they were. Absolutely. We are a family of four, including two adult sons, and stayed for nine days over the New Year and into the first week of January. We were somewhat worried about the sleeping accommodations, since both our boys are tall. We did not have to worry, and even had the option of a rolling mattress in addition to the pull out sofas, which were both of good quality. We also wondered about the general cleanliness and maintenance of the apartment, both of which were also non-issues. The apartment was spotless when we settled in. What a location. In addition to being very quiet (as others have noted before), we never wanted for any amenities from shops to attractions within easy and convenient walking distance. I must mention something about the staff of Home Connections. Between Michelle, Kelly, Alexandra and Jeannie, they were responsive and answered our many questions quickly and completely, and went out of their way to assure our holiday reception was seamless. Probably the biggest question we had on arrival in Paris was 'would everything turn out as it was advertised?' The answer was yes. Dead easy, and exactly as advertised. Thank you, Ladies. One additional point--we booked the Paris Shuttle online for arrival and departure ground transportation. They were waiting for us on arrival as advertised and had us to the apartment within one hour (we are still amazed), and were waiting for us the morning we departed. This was a no-hassle option that we would do again. The vacation rental experience is one we would do again. It is now the only way to go.

  We just returned from Paris this week. We spent Christmas day through New Year's Eve at Rue Greneta. We truly loved the apartment. It was everything we hoped it would be. Alexandria was our contact while there. The apartment was very quiet and convenient to everything. All of our travel was either walking or catching the metro which was very closeby. We contacted Elysee Car's for transportation from the airport, but due to the holiday we could not get them for our return trip. However, we were able to arrange our return trip through Paris Shuttle which was as prompt and professional as Elysee. Overall, we hope to return to Paris and will indeed return to Home Rental Connections.

  Unbelievably quiet apartment - no traffic noise at all. Great location for exploring the Marais on foot and it's easy to walk much further afield or use the Metro or Batobus. Bustling market within rue Montorgueil just a minute's walk (if you're hungry try Le Pain Quotidien). Comfortable living space for a family of five. We had a great time. -Chris. October 2007.

  We stayed here for 5 nights in September. Our group consisted of two kids (8&10), parents, and two grandmas (63 & 77). The apartment worked out great for our varied needs. We were close to tourist spots, but also to shopping and a real neighborhood. The apartment is amazingly quiet. We ended up renting a wheelchair at the pharmacy down the street for one of the grandmas, and received excellent service. Even with our poor French, everyone we met was incredibly friendly and helpful. We dream of being able to go back again, and would definitely consider staying there again.

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Greneta.The apartment was quiet, spacious and very well located not only for local bars and restaurants but for small shops and Monoprix the local supermarket on Rue Sebastopol. We found it central enough to walk to most art galleries, Notre Dame, Louvre,and even as far as The Eiffel Tower and The Champs Elysee.Having said that we got the Metro back as our feet were on fire. The Metro at Sebastopol is within easy walking of around 2 minutes and we found it easy to use. All in all we had a brilliant holiday if only for a week.We certainly would book the apartment again and would like to thank Michele for operating a helpful and professional holiday letting service. Finally we took Micheles advice to book Elysee Cars for transport to and from the airport and the apartment. The service was excellent,prompt,swift and with no problems. We highly recommend it.

  Step through the massive wooden door onto rue Greneta and within two minutes you can be buying croissants from a white-jacketed counter assistant at a patisserie which began as cakemaker to the French royal family in 1730 (Stohrer on rue Montorgueil).Two minutes later, within the grey Gothic depths of Saint Eustache, a church as large as a cathedral, you can track rare bands of sunlight as they dapple the ancient stone gold and purple.Just thirty seconds more and you can be exploring the passages and courtyards and tall, tight streets which Zola described so minutely that it is a small work of the imagination to summon up the clatter and colour and pungent aromas of the time when the newly opened food markets of Les Halles had just become ‘The Belly of Paris’. I could go on…it’s a short stroll to the Centre Pompidou, the Palais Royal, the Seine… the neighbourhood has a particularly wide choice of eateries, including welcoming, affordable restaurants serving the kind of food French grandmothers would approve of… rue Montorgueil, free from cars, but full of cafes, is the ideal place to people-watch... and this apartment is a wonderfully quiet, comfortable, well equipped and unusually spacious haven from which to discover the heart of the city on foot. Lennox Morrisonp.s. Throughout our two-month stay Michele and her team have looked after us with their usual kindness and attention to detail.
