Your apartment was everything advertised and more. It is in the perfect neighborhood for a family such as ours. Every morning the grandchildren and I would go to the corner bakery for baguettes, multigrain bread, and delicious croissants, etc.
We had delightful meals in the apartment from the shops on rue Cler (our son-in-law is a chef) and wonderful walks to "everywhere" in Paris. My grandson and daughter even jogged two days in the wonderful park.
We all loved the apartment and, as you said, it accommodated the 6 of us superbly. If all goes well we will be back to you many times.

| Your apartment is even nicer than the pictures! We stayed with our two college age sons, and had a wonderful time. The proximity to rue Cler shopping was great and we walked to the Seine, Arc de Triomphe, and St. Germain shopping. It was so nice to come home to our well furnished and comfortable apartment at the end of a long day. Thank you and we will be back. |

| We spent the first week of October with our best friends in your wonderful apartment. I spent alot of time researching before settling on this one. It was worth the effort! The rooms were spacious, clean, and located in a beautiful section of Paris. All the food markets were so close, on two nights when we were too tired to go out, we carried in delicious, prepared food. Stacey was great and easy to contact. This is where we stay when we return! Thanks for a terrific week! |

| We had a wonderful trip to Paris. The apartment was perfect for our mother daughter trip. Both the mothers had their own room and my friend and I shared the twin bedroom. The 7th Arr. was perfect. We loved the nearby market street and the restaurant recommendations from the apartment were excellent. We hope to back and stay there again. |

| This was my 2nd stay in this apartment, and I must say everything was as wonderful as the first time around. Beautifully appointed and in such a great neighborhood, you could not ask for anything more! You can be sure we will be back to stay with you on our next visit! |

Let's put it this way, you've inspired me with this gorgeous apartment. All week long I had dreams of my own place in Paris!
Your apartment is just perfect...a great location, beautifully restored and decorated, modern conveniences paired with old world Parisian charm, quiet and cozy. We never wanted to leave and we hope we will be back again soon!
Stacey was a perfect contact person. From the time we reserved until the time we left Paris, she was always there ready to help us with whatever came up. She should be commended for a job extremely well done! |

This was our first trip to Paris, and to France, and staying in Stephen's apartment made the whole trip wonderful!
The apartment is beautifully renovated, decorated with impeccable taste, and has all of the conveniences of home. It was like being home, in Paris.
The apartment and the neighborhood are very quiet, and well situated for using the public transportation to get to all of the sites. To find your way home at night, you simply use the lit up Eiffel Tower as your guiding light.
I highly recommend this apartment if you would like a truly enjoyable stay in Paris. |

| Fabulous apartment due to its location, furnishings, amenities and service. Our family of five found it to be a perfect answer to how to spend 10 days in Paris, enjoying the ambiance of a foreign city, while enjoying the pleasures of home. We could walk to the Eiffel Tower, to the Metro and to the Rue Cler market. I would always stay here in the future. When we had one little problem come up, our hostess was immediately on top of it. Flawless execution. Thanks for sharing it with us. |

My family thought I had completely lost the run of myself as I spent so much time searching for the 'ideal' place in Paris for my family and I to celebrate my 40th Birthday. I had located Stephen's apartment early on in my search but thought it was too elegant and not 'homely' enough for us for the week and I was worried about my 2 year old misbehaving or breaking something in such beautiful surroundings. But I couldn't get this 'little Gem' out of my head so eventually I decided to book it. Our party consisted of my 3 children (2 teenagers and a 2 yr old) and my parents joined us for the weekend. So it had to suit everyone's needs.
Once Stacey opened the front door for us I just knew this was absolutely the best choice for us and all my initial worries were allayed. While it was extremely elegant with beautiful furnishings and furniture, as the pictures depict, it had a very homely and welcoming feel to us. There was a great sense of space which we really appreciated and it was always great to come home to in the evening. It got to a point where we were so comfortable living there that we didn't really want to go out one day nor, indeed, go home again!! I wonder would stephen swap a 1,700 sq ft 4 bed semi in South Dublin for his little 'Gem'? Doubtful!!
I couldn't really fault anything, except that we could have done with some more towels for the week and we couldn't figure out the TV and DVD.
I would highly recommend this apartment for either two couples or a large family, such as ours. The 7eme is just fabulous and we felt like with belonged there with the Champ de Mars literally 2 minutes walk with the playgrounds for our youngest and the lovely food shops, restaurants and nearby fashion shops to keep us all happy. The metro is literally 3 minutes walk away also.
For us, the apartment was the best aspect of our trip with memories of my 40th birthday in the beautiful surroundings being with me forever. Thanks Stephen and Stacey.

| Hello Stacey and Stephan. Just a short note to thank you both for a wonderful experience. We recently traveled to London and Paris with David and Stacey Adams last week and stayed at your apartment. It was perfect. Stacey was the perfect hostess, greeted us upon our arrival with expert detail of where to eat, what to avoid, what to see, etc. and came by at the crack of dawn to see us off! I am in love with your apartment and will recommend it to all my friends (my good, quiet friends!) Thank you so much, and we will contact you on our next visit...hopefully I can deal with the long plane ride again...I'm getting too old to sit in coach for 10 hours! Again, thank you for making our Paris trip exceptional! |

I compared several Paris apartments on the web before choosing this one. But I had never rented an apartment via the web before and was somewhat apprehensive. Stephen and Stacey made sure that all of my questions were answered and provided a lot of information on the apartment before we ever left home.
The apartment was all that I had hoped and more. The owner has taken a beautiful apartment in a great Paris location and decorated it with elegent furnishings, modern appliances, intricate antique lighting fixtures, and wonderful paintings. The total effect comes together when you wake up each morning to coffee and fresh croissants from the nearby bakery to enjoy another day in an apartment that is homey and welcoming, yet beautiful.
The apartment worked great for our party of 3 couples traveling together. Stacey recommended the Paris Shuttle service from the airport and even though our flight was an hour late, they picked us up right away and got us to the apartment quickly.
We have been to Paris five times and never tire of this fabulous city. This was the first time we ever rented an apartment, but this home away from home definitely added a whole new set of experiences and wonderful Paris memories.
Thanks to Stephen and Stacey for creating such an excellent Paris apartment |

Hi Stephen,
We are back from our wonderful visit to Paris. All went smoothly and we very much enjoyed staying in your apartment! Thanks so much for making it available to us. The layout and size were perfect for our family of four plus one friend. The girls had their own room, far from the parents, and our son had his little nook in the study. The space is beautifully decorated but not overly done. We admired the artwork and felt as if we were in a small museum. As you know we had a couple of problems initially with TV and hot water, but Stacy was responsive and kind and it all worked out fine. Thank you, by the way, for the lovely and delicious box of chocolates. We are savoring them one by one as an after-dinner treat, to keep the memory and tastes of Paris alive.
Thanks again,
Susan W.

Dear Stephen,
I wanted to let you know what a wonderful stay we had at the apartment. The apartment was so gracious, a great place to come home to after a hard day of touring. We loved the location. It was an area we were not familiar with and we loved roaming about the markets and cafes, the best thing to do in Paris, as far as we're concerned. We also tried two of the local restaurants you recommended, Le Florimonde and La Fontaine de Mars. The atmosphere at both of them was very welcoming and the food great.
Stacey Dagron couldn't have been more helpful. She was there when we arrived and oriented us to the apartment.
We're so glad we made your acquaintance and hope to use the apartment again on our next trip to Paris.
Best,
Susan

| Wow, what an elegant place! The pictures on the web, as nice as they are, don't really do the place justice. Every item in the flat has been carefully selected for both comfort and style. I'm not sure why anyone would stay in a hotel if this is an option. The neighborhood is great fun, and the owners have gone out of their way to put together a very useful guide for visitors. Can't recommend it highly enough. Rob Falk |
