| We stayed here in April...three adults with lots of Paris experience. Really great! Loved everything about it. The Marais is a wonderful neighborhood and the apartment is gorgeous....and perfectly located! |

| We stayed in this apartment for eight nights in March 2009. It was the perfect location! The unit was spotless and up to date, with a spacious feel and helpful caretakers on site. As in other reviews, Mme. Jagou had stocked the unit with a few helpful items: juice, fruit, instant expresso, chocolate, and water, which helped us to settle in. There was even a bottle of red wine! (We left a bottle to help restock.) Water pressure was excellent and the unit was well heated, which was important due to a cold snap.The only thing which could improve the unit, which was Internet accessible, would be either a telephone for local calls or a computer on site, which would help with ordering taxis or finding friends in town. Excellent value and very comfortable! |

We stayed in this apartment for a week in February. It was a delight. The apartment was spacious,well-equipped, and scrupulously clean. Mme. Jagou made us feel at home, delivered treats, and provided local information.
The location is incomparable with excellent restaurants in close walking distance- Chez Janou, Le Petit Marche- a small supermarket, and a metro on the corner. The area is safe and quiet.
You cannot go wrong here; we will return. |

We stayed in this wonderful apartment in August
2008 and continue to dream of returning. Mme.
Jagou was so warm and welcoming and left us with
a great basket of fruit and cookies as well as orange
juice and wine. My 9 year old son, husband and I
loved the apartment and its very convenient
location near the Metro and within walking distance
to Place des Voges. |

A charming, warm, modern and comfortable apartment in a 17th century building: Absolutely clean, with a very well equipped kitchen, good quality beds and overalls and a very effective heating system made us feel really great when coming back from a long day in winter Paris.
Nicely appointed in one of the most beautiful neighbourhoods in Paris it offers a great selection on nice cafes and restaurants near by and is just a few meters away from metro and bus stations.
Mrs Jagou proved to be a great host, with a discreet and pleasant presence while a nice welcome basket with French delicatessen was there for us.
Our family of three had a great time there. We will definitely be back.

| We loved staying here! The apartment had everything we needed and more. The location was perfect - great cafes and restaurants in the neighborhood and less than 1 block to the Metro. It was also very very quiet. We will definitely recommend it to others and come back. |

| In buying real estate, location is all-important and it is also true for renting an apartment. This apartment on Rue St-Gilles is perfect from that point of view.It is 30 metres from a bake shop, 80 metres from a small supermarket and within a stones throw of several cafes and restaurants. The owner, who lives upstairs, lays on wine, fruit, chocolate, salt and pepper, coffee and sugar and several miscellaneous other cooking necessities. The key thing, however, is the quietness of the place. Considering it is only 80 metres from a very busy street, not a sound can be heard. The only problem my wife and I had was the absence of a comfortable arm chair to lounge in after a hard day of walking in the busy streets of Paris. It is an outstanding place and we can highly recommend it. |

My son and family loved staying in your guest
apartment. I will be in touch to reserve a week next
summer for my other son and his 2 daughters and me.
As soon as he knows when he will be in Europe, I will
email you. I hope we won't be too late! Bryna Hellmann |

We just returned from a lovely stay at 6 rue St.
Gilles. Though the front entrance and stairwell
were not as expected, one should not judge a book
by its cover! The apartment was simply perfect; as
noted by others, there were goodies to greet us,
Mme. Jagou was warm and friendly, and the
apartment, itself, was clean, cozy, fully of
amenities, as well as perfectly situated. If ever back
in Paris, we will certainly stay there again. In the
meantime, we have already recommended it to
many of our friends since it's a tremendous deal.
Merci beaucoup, a bientot. |

This place was gorgeous--my 3 friends and I thought it was very tastefully decorated. Everything was immaculate, the location couldn't have been better and we had a wonderful time overall.
Thanks to Matthias for arranging our stay on short notice. |

Every now and again on your travels you come across a real gem, as we did with the apartment at 6 Rue St Gilles. Three of us (my wife, myself and our friend) stayed there for a week commencing 6 October 2007.
The apartment is beautifully decorated, well equipped, comfortable, clean and very well located for sightseeing, eating out and shopping. On our arrival there was fresh fruit, bottled water and other goodies. Madame Jagou provided us with hot croissants for breakfast one morning; all nice little touches.
We can thoroughly recommend a stay at this apartment. We have stayed in the Marais before, but will certainly look to return to this apartment when we next visit Paris.

My husband and I spent June 9 to June 16, 2007 in this wonderful Marais flat. It was well-stocked and a very clean and awesome place which made our week in Paris wonderful. Bakeries, fresh flower shops, grocery stores, cafe's, brassieres, great restaurants were all so close. We could walk all through Paris from the location of this flat. The metro was a two minute walk away. The train stations were all very close as well. Madame Jagou was just wonderful and very helpful.....When we return to Paris we will certainly go back to stay at 6 Rue St.-Gilles.

| My high school friend Betsy and I took a 1 week holiday in Paris in May 2007. This apartment added an unexpected boost to the quality of our trip. I appreciated its overall comfort, the lovely wooden floors & high ceilings, awesome new bathtub & modern conveniences, the elephant trunk light fixture and additional thoughtful details. The apartment building itself and Madame Jagout herself each add a lot of positive charm to the equation. The neighborhood is quiet (see elderly Parisian musing along sidewalk followed 30 feet behind by elderly dog also musing). The neighborhood is also lively, with tasty bistros, quaint museums,the Metro and Place des Voges steps away. What more could you ask for? |

What a lovely, comfortable, and well-situated
apartment. Madame Jagou has created a warm and
serene environment and provided it with so many
thoughtful and tasteful touches. A warm yet
inobtrusive host, she generously provided us with
beverages, fruit, and assorted goodies upon our
arrival, and even left us pastries on Saturday for
Sunday when she, and not we, knew that the
boulangeries would be closed. The apartment was
spacious and spotless, and I'd rent it again in a
flash. Merveilleux! |

We have just returned from a wonderful week in Paris. This apartment is wonderful, the pictures do not do it justice, a rare experience where the apartment is much better in person. You will love it here. The owner is so nice, providing us with fresh fruit and water upon arrival, and then fresh baked croissants on the week-end. She showed us the best places to eat, it was like having a best friend in Paris.
The apartment was spotless. I have rented several apartments and this one was by far the cleanest. It had everything: Iron, hairdryer, well stocked clean kitchen, beautiful linens, comfortable bed in bedroom, in addition to the comfortable sofa beds.
The location is subperb with nearby metro and bus stops. The beautiful Places des Vosages is just 2 minutes away. Fabulous food was on every corner. Quiet courtyard.
The transaction was also so simple, no crazy forms and ridiculous deposit amounts. These are really nice people. I would highly recommend them!
