Hmmm......I can't decide whether or not I should ask about the noisy bathroom. I guess in a way I just did. ;D shoesy, if you had checked the photos, you would know what I mean.

Aha ! So your "loud" referred to the colors ! Yes, they are definitely "loud" (and that's even an understatement ), but the good thing about them is that they are the colors of our beloved Maccabi Tel-Aviv !!!

I remember looking at this apartment last time someone posted a link. I agree that the bathroom is 'loud'. I am not sure if facing something like that each morning would be a good thing or a bad thing. Megan, I was only looking at my proposed travel dates today. You'll be back at home by the time I arrive, so I might have to meet up with you in the Uk and treat you to a drink to get over all the 'fighting'. LOL

Arrgghh
If anyone wants a guaranteed rental win win - buy a reasonably priced two bedroomed apartment in Paris as they are all booked it seems all the timE and up to a year in advance ! I have lost a couple that have been booked in the time difference between getting the confirmation that they are available and and the 12 hours it can take for Dad to wake up and send a reply to me, now this one will be confirmed within the next two weeks as they have returning renters that they need to give first right of refusal to - ha ha could we know them ;D
anyhow still waiting on the others but had to share the pain !

Megan, I'm surprised you're having to wait so long for a reply from David. He was very quick in getting back to us, both when we first inquired and throughout the rental process.
Good luck, I'm hoping you get the one you really want!
Jo

Hi Meg,
Just for you, I have e-mailed Paula and told her to not hold the apt. for us at that time period.
We have stayed there for about 3 months and are returning this May, so obviously it works for us. If you would like to know our take on tne apt., location, etc. just send me a PM.
Looking forward to breakfasting with you and the other WW at Le Meurice!

Looking forward to breakfasting with you and the other WW at Le Meurice! Thankyou ! I thought afterwards that could be construed as being cheeky and I really didn't mean to be. But I do appreciate it indeed. They do not like to take bookings more than a year out so they want us to wait until the 8 April but I will send you a PM and boost your Karma both here and out there in the universe ! Tx M

At least the bathroom looks rather large..in a typical size City bathroom that would be a tad overwhelming...wake you up though! ;D

Jim - Thank you so much. It is so nice to have you test the apartments before we rent them (LOL!).
Megan - It seems you and I are the direct recepients of Jim's generosity. Not only I have a beautiful apartment, I already know where to buy things and what places to see!
A big exalt to our generous friend!

Tx M Megan, As the time draws nearer you may want to check the postings under Quartier by Quartier titled "St. Georges, Trinité, Rue des Martyrs" that I did some time back with an able assist by Gitte.

Actually, perfectlyparis.com does have a few two bedroom, two bath apartments. I think they have two, one is the one we stayed in and are renting again. There is at least one other as well that seems equally nice but in the 18th and not the 9th.
