We have stayed for 7 nights at
Isabelle's Beabourg apartment in May 2007. The price was a steal (even
with high Euro rate against the dollar). The location is superb.
Isabelle dropped off the keys to the place, wished us a happy stay
and we had a week to ourselves, and all the privacy we needed to
feel like we live in Paris. Isabelle, only a call away, lived just a
block up the street, but had never intruded, and we are very
grateful for trusting us with this wonderful apartment.
The apartment is spacious, with high ceilings and huge windows. The
sun hits the windows around 9:00 in the morning, so if you have
partied all night, be sure to close the curtains :) .
The apartment is in a lively neighborhood, but on a tiny quiet
street, facing a little courtyard. You will never be bothered by any
noise, except for, and you will just have to believe me, birds! You
will feel like sleeping in the garden, as the birds start singing in
the morning and sing all day.
The apartment has all the amenities for a long stay – a washing
machine and a drying rack, an equipped kitchen and plenty of storage.
We have used the fridge to store the wine and goodies we bought
during the day. We didn’t cook, but enjoyed the fabulous Marais
restaurants, just a few minutes away.
Renting from Isabelle is a way to go, and we are already looking
forward to our next vacation!

| We stayed in Isabelle's Beaubourg
apartment for 5 days in late April. Everything was as advertised and
there were no problems. It is good for a couple or perhaps a couple
with one child, has an eat in kitchen, quite spacious bathroom and
sufficient storage space for one's clothes. The apartment is located
in a very quiet street despite being in the heart of a very busy
district. It is convenient to the Metro and RER as well as easy
walking distance to almost any site one might wish to go to. In
addition, there is no shortage of good restaurants and cafes within
a 10 minute walk. We would definitely look to rent from Isabelle
again. |

| What wonderful accommodations and
service! I stayed at Isabelle's Beaubourg apartment which is
perfectly located in a very popular and active area in Paris.
Renting the apartment was quite easy and secure through Isabelle's
site via credit card. It was that easy! Her directions from the very
convenient RER / Metro station to the apartment (less than 5
minutes) was very easy. It's a wonderful location with great
restaurants, museums, cafes, etc. The apartment has a full kitchen,
large bathroom, plenty of storage and a large living room / bedroom.
It gets plenty of light and is beautifully decorated. It is located
on a quaint and romantic street in a very secure building (alarm
code for the main door and key access to the main door in the
building). It was a perfect stay and Isabelle's service was even
better. I would stay at any of her properties and would reccommend
her to anyone. Thanks, Isabelle! |

We stayed for 3 nights in the Beaubourg
flat and enjoyed everything! Making the arrangements "long distance"
(over the Internet) was easy and everything went exactly as planned
- except for one little thing. Our daughter, who is studying in
Besancon (in the Jura region) was to meet us in Paris. She was so
excited she showed up a day ahead of time! Isabelle was wonderful
and arranged for her to stay in the Princess flat for the extra
night.
The flat was fun, clean, and in a great location. There were plenty
of up-to-date tour books (in English!) there so we were able to make
the most of our 3 short days. And we cooked 2 simple but wonderful
dinners while we were there. The whole experience was fantastique!
We can't thank you enough. Hopefully we'll be able to do it again
sometime!

| We spent 12 nights in the Beaubourg
this fall. The apartment was well equip with eveything you would
need. The location was great. The Pompidou was right at your
doorstep. Restaurants, Metro, Bus, Bakeries, and food market are
within walking distance of the apartment. The apartment was clean
and comfortable. The Notre Dame and Hotel de Ville are close by. We
enjoyed the sights and the city. Isabelle was very pleasant and
helpful. Prior to my departure I e-mailed her a dozen times about
this and that. She responded within 24 hours. Thanks for all your
help. I had a wonderful time. Highly recommended. |

We stayed in the Beaubourg Studio
Apartment for a week in May and June 06 on our first trip to France.
We loved the location, with great bakeries, some good value eating
places and food shops just "round the corner". Also very accessible
to everything either by foot or using the Metro. On quiet laneway
-no traffic noise but very close to Pompidou Centre and its main
square with buskers etc! Very secure. Isabelle was very helpful and
welcomed us personally on the first day to make sure every thing was
ok and to offer advice on things to do if we needed it. Apartment
was very comfortable with plenty of room for the two of us, washing
machine and good sized kitchen and bathroom (shower and bath). Main
bed was low (as shown in photo on web-site) which was fine for us
but may not suit all.
We were hesitant of booking over the internet as it not part of a
recognised accommodation group, but every thing went smoothly and we
will be recommending Isabelle's apartments to our friends.

| We stayed for a fortnight in May 2006,
having booked on the internet. It was exactly as shown in the pics on
the net so there were no surprises. It is a superb place. ideally
located. Around the Pompidou is like being in a large village, with
excellent food shops and restaurants, and the Metro and buses are nearby.
Despite that, it is very quiet. The apartment was perfect; clean,
comfortable and cozy. It is the perfect spot from which to take your
Paris holiday. If we visit Paris again, we would definitely stay there
again. In addition Isabelle is a lovely and honest person to deal with.

Hello Isabelle. I am sorry that we did not
get a chance to meet you in person.
Elise and I want to thank you for the opportunity to spend a week in
your beautiful Beaubourg apartment. We had a wonderful time in Paris,
enjoying the sights and people of the city. We ate dinners and lunches
at really excellent restaurants. All of our dinners were at restaurants
within a short walk of the apartment. And the food, the service and the
wine were all first-rate.
Besides two rainy days on Tuesday and Wednesday, we had excellent
weather. And even on the rainy days we spent inside museums or on the
metro.
All of your advice and tips were very helpful. We would love to come
back again and we will recommend you and your services to any of our
friends who will be coming to visit your beautiful city. Thanks for the
memorable experience. Bill and Elise Harrison |
