May 01, 2024:  Jill C. - Portland, OR for 31 nights

Comments:There were a few things that needed attention, and that didn't work correctly, but our local manager was very responsive to our communications and it was fine. There was a little renovation noise from either above us or next door, but it was only during day hours and we were out and about the city, so it didn't bother us much. The windows are very soundproof, so street noise was usually almost nil, even with two bustling bistros a half block away. The back of the apartment was very quiet, but for lovely birdsong. Very nice welcome supplies--wine, coffee, milk. We found that the linens were full of unrinsed, strongly-scented detergent, probably from overloading the washing machine. We ran them on a couple of rinse-only cycles and that took care of it. The washing machine was probably the biggest negative, but that's not unexpected with the combo wash/dry style machines. I spent the whole month of May 2024 here, with another female friend, and it was our first trip to Paris. We're in the "a little older" category and had no idea how this neighborhood would feel to us as far as safety, convenience, noise, etc. It was perfe

Dec 29, 2023:  Charles G. - Frederick, MD for 9 nights

Comments:Excellent location. Easy to walk to Metro lines, grocery stores, bakeries, museums and only about 20 mins walk to the Seine. Great location to explore the Marais neighborhood. Apartment is spacious and furnishings are comfortable. Walk up to second floor is not a problem.

Nov 15, 2023:  Pamela P. - Somers, VIC Australia for 4 nights

Comments:Overall the apartment was terrific, extremely comfortable and in a great location. There were ongoing renovations within the building which detracted from the entry but once inside all was lovely. Just one thing, there was an intermittent noise from pipes or wind, maybe, a bit hard to track down. We are pleased with our ongoing relationship with. Vacations in Paris and though the rentals are slightly more than other sites, the thoughtful service is valued. Our interactions over the years with Jan particularly, have been a key reason for ongoing bookings.

Nov 02, 2023:  Francois & Fan L. - Washington, DC for 9 nights

Comments:This is a BIG apartment, at least by Paris standards, and in an unbeatable location. American guests used to 3-fixture bathrooms might not like the separate WC room, but hey, this is Paris. Gripes: * WiFi (major) * Doorbell (inconsequential to us, but others might want it) * Incorrect street and courtyard codes in apartment book -- need to be updated!

May 16, 2023:  Kaaren A. - Howrah, TASMANIA Australia for 28 nights

Comments:The blinds in one bathroom and in one bedroom do not roll up. They just hang there. It makes the rooms very dark and difficult to see in. They could easily be fixed by replacing with proper roller blinds on a spring with a cord. The ironing board is kept under a bed. It was covered in dust when we took it out to use. There needs to be a large spare blanket provided for the bedroom that only has one blanket on it. I was cold the first few nights before it warmed up. There was only a little throw rug that I used. The dinner plates should be replaced. Just about every one has a little chip on it. The underbench fridge had to be opened extremely carefully as frequently the plastic bit holding the milk bottle on the shelf on the inside of the door would fall off . Maybe it needs glueing in place? In the front bedroom there is a television attached to the wall that doesn?t work. It needs to either be replaced or removed. There are magazines in a basket that date back to 2016! I know it?s not important but surely someone should throw out the really old ones. The same with the Travel Guide books ( Rick Steves, Lonely Planet etc). There is a huge collection of them dating way back. Surely only the most recent issues need to be kept. The apartment has Parisian charm and we appreciate that but some things like a few new cushions and torn upholstery on the dining chairs being fixed wouldn?t go astray! We stayed in the same apartment 9 years ago and not much had changed. Love the location of the apartment. It is just around the corner from everything yet very quiet and peaceful. It is also a great size. I have only mentioned the small things that could be attended to in order to give the owner some feed back. Renting an apartment in Paris is not cheap and I feel that for a small outlay in time and money the owner could turn the apartment from ?Great? into ?Fabulous?

Dec 27, 2019:  Ann W. - Boulder, CO for 5 nights

Comments: We LOVED the location of this property. In the heart of the Marais and easy walking anywhere. We were there during a transportation strike so spent alot of time walking instead of on the Metro. It was still easy to get where we wanted to be. Of the f

Aug 31, 2016:  Chas Geiger & Tom C. - Harleysville, PA for 30 nights

Comments:Everything was great, the spacious apartment more than lived up to its description and photos on the website. It was clean and everything was ready for our arrival. Anyone renting it will be very happy there. VacationInParis makes renting an apartment in Paris easier than renting an apartment in the United States and any time we had a question, you guys would find out the answer. You guys are incredibly helpful. Chas and I can't thank you enough for your work.

Jun 26, 2016:  Sarah M. - , VIC Australia for 5 nights

Comments:A fantastic and roomy apartment for our family of 4, right in the heart of the Marais. Shopping of any kind literally right on your doorstep in a quiet end of the street. Both bedrooms have ensuites, although only one central toilet, and kitchen is well stocked and washer/dryer very handy. There is no dishwasher, but a large sink for hand washing. Easy walk to Notre dame in 10 minutes, the louvre is 25-30 minutes walk. Eiffel Tower and all other main attractions easily accessed by nearby train stations within 15 minutes. Highly recommended!

Jun 09, 2016:  Nisim H. - Orlando, FL for 5 nights

Comments:The apartment is beautiful and the location could not be better, the finishes are so nice and made us feel like Parisians. The Checkin process was efficient but could have been more personable. We got late checkout as requested, our flight was leaving late. I can recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Paris. Overall a 5 star experience.
