From a letter written to Naomi shortly after our return (May 2009)....
I just wanted to say THANK YOU! for going above and beyond for our
recent weeklong stay in Paris in May 2009. We were both so very appreciative of your letting us come in early on the day of our arrival and allowing
us to use the apartment until we took off for the airport - these
made such a huge difference in our comfort level. Especially being
able to take a nap soon after our arrival - made all the difference
in our transition. The weather could've been a little more cooperative, but we still managed to do and see a lot. As this was our 4th stay, it really was a chance to "fill in the blanks" and
get to know the city a little more intimately. We both felt as if we
got a better sense of the city during this visit.
You have done an amazing job on the apartment - it is truly a comfortable and quiet place. Given the street life going on day and night, this was nothing short of remarkable. Michael said it was a little like living on Bleecker Street.
I was also amazed at how many
nooks and crannies you have in the apartment -- I couldn't believe
it when Michael told me where you kept the lightbulbs, though. I
thought I found all the possible hideaways, but I did miss that bottom
drawer! I really do admire the work you did in that apartment - it's got a lot of warmth and style. You really did maximize the space as well.
After searching through so many apartment listings, I feel as if we were very fortunate to have chosen your place. If and when we come back for another extended stay, I would
definitely stay in one of your apartments again.
The apartment on Quincampoix is wonderfully done, and a very comfortable place to stay. The only thing we really missed a lot was a window onto the
street, but given its busy & central location, it was remarkable how quiet the apartment was.

I have stayed here many times and will continue to
come back! The apartment is wonderful in every way.
Washer and dryer are a real luxury at this price. Do
not hesitate to book with this owner! |

| We can't say enough about this wonderful apartment -- clean, comfortable, secure and the location can't be beat. A special feature is the delightful private patio, which is ideal for morning coffee or pre-dinner drinks. All in all a real gem and highly recommended. |

| We stayed in this apartment in April, 2009. The location was perfect and it is actually a little nicer than the pictures indicate. The only problem was construction on the ground floor next door. We thought it was a great price, a very nice place and we would definitely stay there again. |

| We really enjoyed the apartment. The location was wonderful. It was clean and had everything you could ask for. It was close to the metro, which made it really easy to take the RER from/to the airport. The owner was so helpful with all of our questions/concerns. We are really happy that we stayed here.

| This apartment was perfect for our recent trip and we cannot wait to return! It is in the heart of the Marais, just blocks from the Pompidou Center and Chatalet Les Halles metro stop. It has everything you could ever need and makes excellent use of the space - it feels much larger than it actually is. The owner was extremely helpful and accommodating and we will be renting from her again! |

| My wife and I stayed in this studio last week (Nov. 2008). It was our first time renting an apt in Paris, and our first time with VRBO anywhere. The studio is terrific. It is laid out in a way that makes it roomy and comfortable for two. All appliances are new and modern. Internet, phone and TV all great. It is on the first floor (i.e. one floor above street level) but has its own private small patio. This is on the central core well, so has no view of anything, but is still a big plus to get some fresh air. In warm weather it would be wonderful for meals. The studio is just a couple of blocks from Pompidou Centre, just off Rue Rambuteau. It's a very lively area, but even though the studio is just a few steps off Rambuteau on a side street, all is calm and quiet. The building is very secure. The location is perfect for anybody wanting to explore Marais, Ile de la Cite, Ile St. Louis, etc. It's any easy walk to left bank, Palais Royale, Louvre, etc. Just a few blocks away, rue Montorgeuil is a foodie's paradise. If you want to cook, you'll be on that street daily. The owner (American) is in Paris and easily accessible and very much interested in seeing that all is well. We would stay there again in a heartbeat. In fact, the morning of the day before we left I was sitting on the terrace and told my wife, "I already miss this place and we're still here!" It was a wonderful experience, so much better than a hotel, and we almost felt as if we were living in Paris, if only for a week. |

My husband and I stayed in this apartment for 3
weeks in July 2008 and were continually remarking
how fortunate we were to have found it. Not
only is it very attractive, it is furnished most
thoughtfully with every possible thing one might
need, such as sewing kits, Scotch tape, tablets,
pens, guide books, food staples, CDs, magazines,
etc. It was a delight to work with the owner, who is
extremely knowledgeable and never failed to
answer a question we had about the city. We look
forward to a return visit if we can find openings
after we have enticed many friends to book this
place!
