Dear Liz & Albert,
Thank you for letting us stay in your charming home in Paris. It is a very cozy and comfortable place in the heart of Paris. The location is perfect with easy access to markets, cafes, metro and some of the most famous sights in Paris. My nephew really loved your place and wanted to stay longer or come back in the near future.
Thanks again,
Victoria, Inna, & Michael

Homeowner Response:
Hi Victoria,
Albert and I are really happy that our fellow "New Yorkers" (and your nephew!) loved our apartment. We'd be more than happy to share it with you again in the future. Thank you for the comment too.
Warmest Regards, Liz et Albert

Many thanks for a fantastic visit to Paris! Your apartment is lovely and perfectly appointed. If we owned it ourselves we would not change a thing (OK, maybe some sort of pulley system to help get folks up the stairs after a long day--like the "j" bar at a ski resort).

More importantly, thanks for all the personal touches including well thought out arrival instructions and neighborhood tips. We look forward to returning to "Peace and Light" (can never have enough of either, can you) on future visits to Paris.
  Maureen & Barry

Homeowner Response:
Thank you so much Maureen. Albert and I are so glad you enjoyed the apartment (and happy we have the same taste in things!). Also, that's so funny about the "J" bar - when I used to carry the shopping home (why did I not get delivery?)...
So, thank you again, and we would love to welcome you again to "peace and light" - and no, we can never have enough of these.
Warmest Regards, Liz et Albert

Dear Liz and Albert, thank you so much for the use of your lovely apartment in the heart of Paris. The internet access was a luxury to be able to keep in contact with family and check up on Paris sightseeing information. Your advice on local restaurants and places to see was very helpful and having Rue Montorgueil right on your door step was wonderful for shopping for groceries or stopping at one of the many cafes or restaurants.

Dear Deborah and Alexa,
Great to know... that our favourite restaurants are still fabulous. Thanks for your comment! Best Wishes, Liz et Albert

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this delightful
and cozy apartment. The location was convenient to
museums, restaurants, and transportation. After a
full day of sight-seeing, we appreciated the quiet
and peaceful apartment that had all the amenities
for a comfortable and memorable stay. Merci, Liz et
Albert!

  Sarah & Gabriel Cifarelli, Pasadena, CA

Homeowner Response:
Thank you Sarah and Gabriel. We are happy you enjoyed the apartment and your stay. It is surprisingly quite for such a central area. I guess it is because it is high up. Best Wishes and thank you for your lovely comment, Liz et Albert

We had a wonderful weekend stay in Paris! The apartment was very comfortable, clean and nicely decorated. Also, the apartment gets wonderful light which is rare for Paris! We will definitely stay again!

We enjoyed our month in Paris ever so much. It
was all we hoped it would be. The apartment was
perfect in every way. Even in October we enjoyed
sunny breakfasts on the lush terrace. The
apartment has everything one could imagine
needing for a month stay in Paris. We really did
look forward to coming "home" after a busy day of
walking every where. It is perfectly situated to
enjoy all that Paris has to offer and EAT! Thank you
Liz and Albert for being so attentive and for giving
us the peace of mind that you were only a phone
call or email away. Hope to see you in Costa Rica.
Con carino,
Sissy and Peter Burke

Homeowner Response:
Dear Sissy and Peter,
We want to thank you both, for loving our home so much! It was such a pleasure for us to have you both stay; and we are delighted that our home really became your home too...Thank you for loving our garden too! Would love to see you in Costa Rica someday! Nous vous embrassons tres tres fort, Liz et Albert

Merci beaucoup for a wonderful stay in Paris! Liz and Albert have a welcoming and comfortable flat w/ all the ammenities of home. The location is central, yet off the "touristy" path so you truly feel like a Parisien. We loved the local tips that you provided Liz, and enjoyed many special places/restaurants on your recommendations. The walk up the stairs isn't easy but manageable, and helped to work off all those delicious baguettes & wine we enjoyed! We hope to one day be back- thanks again!
  Lindsay & Malcolm, Toronto, Canada

Homeowner Response:
"De rien!" Albert and I are delighted you loved the area and our favourite local restaurants. You are most welcome to come back anytime! Many thanks for your comment, Liz et Albert

You really are in the heart of Paris at Liz and Albert's place and they and Fred are wonderful hosts. Not only did they make booking and arriving easy but they also gave excellent advice for services in the area. Our two children (10 and 13) felt it was "our" home within minutes of arrival. You can easily pretend you're a local here - it's great to eat and shop on nearby rue M. I couldn't recommend this 'home away from home' highly enough to all, except those with difficulty climbing stairs. The apartment itself is quiet and clean. The air con unit perfect on warm nights and the facilities just perfect. Mind - the laundry machine takes hours, so plan to do one load per evening! Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer! Thanks again, Liz and Albert. You are lovely hosts.
  Joanne, Vancouver BC Canada

Homeowner Response:
Dear Joanne and the girls, we are so happy you all found a 'home away from home'. This is the biggest compliment that anyone could give us. Thank you. We hope you'll all be visiting us again before long. You were wonderful guests! Warmest Regards, Liz et Albert. (PS If you set the washer to "2" it gives a "quicker 45min cycle"..sorry, we didn't realise this earlier to tell you!)

Belated thanks for a great three day stay in Paris! The apartment was perfect and in such a great location for all we did. We really enjoyed strolling down Rue Montorgueil and bringing back pastries each morning. Easy to walk or metro to all the sights - thanks so much Liz and Albert for sharing!

Homeowner Response:
You are all most welcome. Thank you. (although I am now craving a real French "pain au chocolat" from the patisserie!!)

Gemma and I had a wonderful week at Liz and
Albert's apartment. Making the arrangements was
very convenient and they were flexible with our
arrival and departure schedule. Julien was very
helpful when we arrived and made sure we were
comfortably settled. It is a beautiful, clean
apartment in a great neighborhood.

Homeowner Response:
Thanks Tom and Gemma, Albert and I are very happy you liked the apartment and thank you for sharing your comment with other potential visitors. Maybe we'll bump into each other in New York one day! Best Regards, Liz et Albert

How wonderful! Our family of 4 had a fantastic stay in Liz & Albert's apartment. All the arrangements worked out perfectly. The boys (10 & 7) loved the Leggo, Thanks. The apartment was in a great position, and we really enjoyed the balcony with wine & cheese and baguettes. Totally recommend staying here. But don't have heavy luggage to carry up the stairs!
  Sharyn, Pomona, Queensland, Australia

Homeowner Response:
Hey Sharyn
I hope you didn't carry your own luggage up the stairs! That's what our friends are there for!
Very happy the boys enjoyed the Leggo though, and you the balcony with a nice wine and baguette.
And, thank you for sharing with others. I'm so happy to share our Paris home with a fellow Queenslander!
Best Regards,
Liz et Albert

I stayed at Liz and Albert's cozy apartment over the Christmas holiday. It was perfect! I loved feeling a part of eveyday life in Paris with its proximity to the local merchants, yet it was also very close to major points of interest. The apartment itself was quiet and well stocked with everything from local guidebooks to kitchen necessities...the little balcony was a wonderful place to sit in the sun and enjoy a glass of wine, even in the winter! Thank you Liz and Albert for a memorable stay!

We loved the apartment! It was perfect for a week's stay. The booking process was very easy and painless, and Liz and Albert were very prompt in answering emails. We really enjoyed having Pain au Chocolats every morning from the bakeries on Rue Montorgueil. The apartment had everything we needed, and we especially appreciated the computer with internet access. The internet was invaluable in keeping up to date with the latest news on the transit strike. Lots of stairs though and we're fit 30 somethings! Would not recommend for older folks.
  Matt and Sharon, Sacramento, CA

Homeowner Response:
Dear Matt and Sharon,
Oh no, not a transit strike. You got a REAL french local's experience... (Sorry about that.) Glad the internet helped though.
Hope the strike didn't debilitate your trip too much. I'd imagine you'd walk most places anyway.. (except Versailles or something..).
Thank you for the comment for others.
Hope you'll be able to come again some day (and not experience a national strike!). Of course the Pain au Chocolats are always good!
Best Regards
Liz et Albert

The apartment is located in a prime location next to the Metro with easy access everywhere. There was plenty of room for my wife and I and the easy phone and internet access was great. If any issues, there are 6 flights of stairs (which I enjoyed to burn off the extra weight from all the great near-by restaurants) that may not be easy to navigate for some.

Great hosts and a place I would definitely stay again.

Lois and I visited Liz and Albert in 2004 and can verify that this would be an excellent place to stay in Paris. Walk to everywhere in central Paris. Easy trains to everywhere else. The real Paris experience!!!!

HI Dad,
Thanks for the comment! Of course you were in the apartment before we gut renovated, many years before we started having guests staying. It's location is of course the same though! Thanks for sharing with others!
Love you,
