                        Apologies for not leaving this review earlier Oliver and Serge!! It wasn't until I started looking for an apartment [not in paris] for this summer that i realized i failed to leave my review! Well, where to start? My husband and I honeymooned in Paris 15 years ago and stayed in the Marais, so we knew we wanted to go back... this time with 2 children in tow! From start to finish this was a positive experience... Serge was very easy to communicate with even though we were overseas... and Oliver was a pleasure to deal with once we arrived at the flat! The apartment was in immaculate condition with great style... and you couldn't ask for a better location. Close to shops, restaurants and the Metro. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and likely will in the next few years! Thank you again!

                        Owner response: Dear Veronica, thanks for your feedback ! I am glad you enjoyed your stay in the apartment ; I would be happy to welcome you again if you come again to Paris ! Kind regards. Serge

                        It was my first visit to this beautiful city and i only wanted it to be more localized rather than to see from eyes of visitors so my boufriend and I decided on apartment rental. Serge's apartment is one of a few among the VRBO flats to allow partial week rental. The first thing I look for from a rental flat was its interior look and feel. The photos attached are all true to reflect the nice and cosy atmosphere it would bring to your stay in Paris. The open kitchen is a plus, with a small oven, a dish washi machine and all utensils ready for you. They are making our homemade breakfasts and dinners much easier. Must mention that the elevator in the building adds value to the apartment since you will regret it if you are carrying heavy or big luggages to Paris. Location is surprisingly good with St Paul station of Metro line 1 just a 3-min walk away. You will find supermarkets, Internet cafe (in case you need to print or photocopy) and restaurants easily in the neighbourhood as well. In short, I will definitely come back to this apartment with future visits. Thanks Serge and Olivier.

                        Owner response: Dear Catherine, Thanks for your compliments ! I am happy you enjoyed your stay at the apartment and in Paris. I hope to welcome you again if you go to Paris for another stay ! Kind regards. Serge

                        Three of us stayed for 1 week and enjoyed the apartment very much. We appreciated the owner's gracious hospitality. The apartment is beautiful and in a fabulous location. We were especially grateful for the fact that the owner's agent was waiting for us right outside of the apartment to greet us when we arrived and another agent helped us get a taxi to the airport early in the morning when we left.

                        Had a great time there. Unit is modern, well kept and presented. Very comfortable and well located. booking process was very easy and Oliver (who met us and was there when we left) was most helpful. We would definitely stay there again. Photos in VRBO reflect very well this unit. Everything is close - restaurants, market, patisserie, Metro, river..... Loved it and wish we were still there. No complaints at all.

                        Everything is wonderful about this apartment and I had such a perfect stay. It was easy to reserve, then when I arrived 2 nice gents let me in, made sure I had everything I needed, took payment, and then returned deposit when I left. Seamless. The apartment is very well appointed and has everything you need for comfort and function. The bed is comfortable, linens are good, the towel warmer is incredible and it was always warm inside the apartment even though snowing during my stay. The neighborhood is beautiful and practical with plenty of restaurants, bars, shops and walking distance to where you want to be. I look forward to staying here again on my next trip to Paris. Thank you Serge!

                        My husband and I brought our two boys(ages 13 and 10) to visit Paris for the first time. We wanted something a little more personal than a hotel. Having never stayed in this part of town before, Le Marais is now my favorite. Centrally located yet off the beaten tourist track with many good restaurants and reasonable prices. The apartment was exactly as stated. Clean and comfortable with a nice kitchen. We loved having the free phone to call friends and family back home. A nice touch. Serge is kind enough to book partial weeks as well. Something that is hard to find on VRBO. The whole process of booking was very simple with no extra charges to worry about. Thank goodness for email and paypal!!! We would definitely come and stay here again!

                        Our apartment was as advertised. The position of the apartment was great, close to everything you need to enjoy your stay. We were given some great recommendations on local places to eat and we had some enjoyable meals on the rue de rosier, we were also made to feel very welcome. Lively local nightlife around the weekend which may suit younger people. Paris is just gorgeous.

                        My sister-in-law, 5-year old niece and I stayed here for four days. It was wonderful. I kept thinking it was too good to be true! The property management reps (two young men) met us at the apartment on schedule. Carried our bags upstairs, gave us recommendations about markets, restaurants, etc. while I kept trying to speak French ... they spoke English. They were so pleasant and helpful. We asked about tipping ettiquette and they said none was necessary. We do think they deserve tips. The apartment is within easy walking distance of everything we wanted to see and we discovered a river taxi for the times my sister-in-law and niece didn't want to walk. You can buy passes so you can ride unlimited trips per day. A friend is visiting in October and I'm recommending this apartment to her. We felt like we were part of the neighborhood within 8 hours. We found our market, bakery, restaurants, bars, an internet cafe around the corner, ATM -- everything we needed within two blocks. They leave a booklet of instructions so if you can't figure out how to work the TV or washing machine, all you have to do is look at the booklet. I really did feel like one of the neighbors. On the first morning, I think I met one of the building's tenants. She was an elderly lady checking her mail. We said "Bonjour" and I tried to explain we were visitors from the US. She said, "Je ne comprend pas." Probably because my French isn't so great. But then on the last day, I saw her again and she greeted me like I was an old friend -- a permanent resident. The only thing that might bother some folks is that young people party and laugh until 2 or 3 in the morning and the week we were there, there was a lot of construction, street cleaning and garbage collection that started about 6 a.m. I was sleeping on the comfortable fold-out sofa and closed the windows so I didn't really hear it. My sis-in-law was in the bedroom and kept the windows open so she heard it but wasn't really bothered by it. It was "happy" noise as someone else described it. The photos really are pretty accurate -- in some ways, I think the apartment might be more comfortable than the photos show. The coffee press works great. The refrigerator and the microwave were all we needed to get by for four days. We were a little challenged with the door keys but by the end of day two (with niece's help), we had them figured out. Our next stop was a hotel room in London. I'd take the apartment over the hotel room any day!

                        Dear Serge, I wrote a review, twice, but VRBO didn't like it both times and rejected it. We loved staying at your apartment on Rue des ecouffes. The location was perfect, the apartment suited our family well, both of the gentlemen who greeted us were kind and generous with their time. I would rent it again if and when I return. Thank you, Ross

                        The thing I love about apartment rentals is that you feel like a local and not so much like a tourist. This charming flat is located on a narrow street among businesses that locals frequent. You walk into a hallway that houses a picturesque courtyard at the end, as other residents bustle by on their way to their own flats. You could tell the property has history with the exposed beams as you walk up to the third floor, and an antique key to open the door. Yes it was on the third floor, but the property managers were eager to help with the luggage. The place was roomy enough for three, although a fourth would be a squeeze! I did stay on the convertible couch, and it was comfortable enough for not being my own bed. All the tourist sites are walking distance or a short hop on the Metro! Everyone was polite and wonderful to deal with, and I have no complaints. I hope to stay here again if I find myself in Paris in the future!
