Livre d'or

 

We wanted to thank you for an extremely pleasant, comfortable, memorable stay at your apartment. We will certainly tell our friends and family about your place for future visits to this beautiful city.

This is the perfect location (and great price) to spend your time in Paris.  Most important....I always feel safe in this lovely neighborhood.  The metro is just across the street..so convenient.  Bastille and the Marais are just a few blocks away with some great restaurants. The two times I have stayed, the building had only a few tenants so the apartment was very quiet.  Everything you need for your stay is in the apartment...full renovated kitchen with dishwasher and washer/dryer and renovated bathroom is perfect.  Last but not least, manager  Catherine is responsive and delightful!  I will be back!”

Very nice, and quite large by Paris standards, apartment. Overlooks the green and leafy Boulevard Richard Lenoir. The metro is close and the eleventh is my favourite area of Paris. Efficient and friendly in and out. The floors creak but that seems to be normal.

The apartment was spacious, light and airy (freshly painted!!!) - the newly renovated bathroom was very nice – the kitchen accommodated all of our cooking needs – and the big French windows/doors – the balcony – the view of the park from the balcony – really great!!!

There were so many “extras” - everything one needs to feel “at home” rather than “renting” an apartment: guide books – books – music - umbrellas – china and cutlery for daily use and special occasions – table linens – extra light bulbs – bedding – to mention just a few of the many special touches. All those things made our stay so easy and comfortable.

Plus the location is super – such fun to see the Place de la Bastille from the balcony. Every morning, I'd awaken – go to the balcony – step outside and look at Bastille and say “Bonjours, Paris”!!!) Great local transport – metro – bus – just a few minutes from the apartment. All of Paris was easily accessible from our location. Swimming pool about 4 minutes walk – St. Ambroise Church – beautiful!!! - grocery stores – restaurants and cafes – 4 weekly open air markets with marvelous fresh foods – and a short walk to the beautiful canal.  It was just perfect!!!

Each morning, Alan would go the one of the boulangeries and buy croissants, baguettes and pastries – then we selected one thing to do that day and took our time doing it. We visited museums, parks, local sights – many of which we had not seen before – and of course, we enjoyed speaking French again!!

Catherine was so helpful – arranging our transfer from the airport and greeting us upon our arrival – even a special bottle of champagne to welcome us!!! - And we knew she was always available if we needed anything – she is a pleasure to work with and visit with as well.

We had a lovely stay. As soon as we arrived we were made to feel comfortable with wine, baguette and jam. The apartment was roomy and cozy simultaneously.
