I must say the apartment was just so lovely, Everything was done in such good taste.  All the conveniences of home were at this apartment.  We couldn't have asked for anything more.  We return to Paris once a year and I will definitely contact you to rent one of your apartments.  Thank you for the wonderful service you have provided us and for use of the charming Paris place--We just loved everything!!
If you ever need anyone to give positive opinions on your place please don't hesitate to get in touch with me.
Again thanks a million!

Dear Porter,

I finally have a minute to thank you for an unforgettable time we had in Paris. There is no doubt that your beautiful apartment has contributed to our overall feeling of being totally charmed by Paris, its kind and helpful people and the art of which we couldn`t get enough. We have fallen in love with your city and definitely want to come back again.

So, keep creating nice places full of character, it certainly makes for a very special visit in Paris.

Regards, Katarina F.

Dear Porter,

I can’t believe it’s been two weeks since we got back from Paris.  Life’s a whirlwind these days. But I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed staying at Cherche Midi 2. It made for a perfect week. I’ve passed your URL on to several friends, with my rave reviews.  Thank you again for your hospitality – and your beautiful and thoughtfully arranged apartment.  We’ll look forward to staying there – or perhaps at one of your new flats – on our next visit to Paris.

Thank you very much for the wine. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

Porter,
Ruby and I are so pleased to have rented the apartment at 41 Rue Mazarine. We found it to be more than we expected.  We thank you for all your help. Your help make our trip to Paris a wonderful experience.

Dear Porter,

First of all we had a GREAT stay in the Picardie apartment.
We loved the apartment and the location.
Lots of great food and fashion shopping.

We told lots of people about the place (and will continue to do so) and hopefully you will get some more guests as a result!

Thanks again and we decided for our next trip we will start by booking Picardie and go from there.

Kind regards,

Paul and Barb V.

Hi Porter,
  I know it is a bit late but I wanted to thank you for the lovely apartment at 72 Rue Mazarine which we rented in January. It truly was a wonderful experience and the comforts of home were really built into that apartment. The comfy sheets, the plush towels and the French ambiance were truly enjoyed.

  Again many thanks and hoping to do business with you in the future.

Hi Porter,

   We had a great week in Paris!  The apartment comfortable, functional and in a wonderful location.  We enjoyed sitting in the park and reading the paper, having a cafe cream in a sidewalk cafe and in general, just hanging out. You were very helpful in orienting us to the apartment. The food store at Bon Marche is wonderful!  All in all, a great experience.  It was an enjoyable stay and memorable week.

Best,  Shelton

I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for the apartment that we rented from you and to tell you what a fantastic time we had while in Paris this past week. We rented the apartment on the Rue de Picardie and couldn't have been more thrilled with the apartment, location and all of the help both you provided us with.

We couldn't have felt more safe in that apartment, with its multiple locks, entries, etc. and up to date facilities.

Thank you also for your quick responses, help and advice in confirming the rental, tips for Paris etc. I know it was very short notice, but it came together so smoothly and we really appreciate it.

We had such a fantastic time and are all still talking of what a pleasure it was to have an apartment and to rent from you. We plan to tell anyone who asks that that is the way to go.

So, thank you so much! We hope to return soon.

Best Regards,
Sara S.

Dear Porter,

First I would like to thank both of you for all your patience related to the rental of an apartment in Paris.  You answered all of my questions in a frank and timely way.  If this is an example of the caliber of service that we can expect once we arrive in Paris, then we are in for an exciting time without having to worry about our accommodations.  Frankly, all the options on your web site were presented in a very professional way and each place looked lovely.  It was a difficult choice.

We are currently staying in one of Porter Scott's apartments on the rue de Cherche-Midi.

We are pleased to endorse the quality of Porter's residences. This is our 6th rental with At Home Abroad (I Love Paris Apartments) and is the only Paris rental service we now use. Unlike some of the other rental services (where we once had an uncomfortable experience with an individual owner), this is an organized & well managed group. The pictures on the web-site give an accurate feeling for the atmosphere of each apartment.

The first time we reserved we had no idea what to expect (at that time payment was 50% in advance by wire transfer or check; as you know you now have the protection of credit card). We are always met at the apartment (on time), provided with the keys & if it is the first time shown around & given an explanation of how to use the appliances, heat, etc.

We are Americans who have lived in Paris either full time or part-time between 1984-2004, and now that our visits are less frequent, it's especially important that where we stay keeps our Paris experience authentic.
Porter's apartments are in great neighbourhoods, on the Left Bank particularly.

Best regards,

Alan & Sherryl K.

Hi Porter,
  I know this message is a bit late in coming but I wanted to thank you so much for the rental of Mazarine 3.  We had a wonderful time and I must say the apartment was terrific.  I will surely pass the word on about your lovely apartments.  We will be returning some time in the fall and I will get in touch with you to rent another apartment at that time. 
  Again thanks a million.  It is a pleasure to do business with your company.

Sincerely,
   Marianne P.

The Parisian Scavenger, by Porter Scott

"... this time, I was going until 1 A.M., loading up my car with the following: 2 very large rectangular mirror frames, a lovely porcelain corner sink with its original faucet, an oak cabinet door, a small cheese cabinet door with its wooden grill, more carved marble mantle pieces, a large cast iron skillet, and bits and pieces of carved wood: from molding to cornices."
