Guestbook for Rimbaud & Verlaine House
Dear Michael,
We just wanted to say that we had a lovely stay in house. It really is a fabulous place to stay, better than a five star hotel and you have thought of everything to make your guests feel at home.
Thanks again and we will be recommending you to all our friends needing somewhere to stay.
Best wishes
Dominique
Dear Michael - just to say thank you for all of your efforts on our behalf. I am sure that we will be back! - Thanks again. - Paul
Hi Michael, - Just wanted to email you to thank you for our stay at the apartment. We had a wonderful time. - Regards Amy
Dear Michael, - We all made it back to the U.S. safely and soundly last night. I just wanted to thank you again for a great experience, a great place and for the excellent hospitality. We had a brilliant time in London and very much enjoyed our stay.
The next time I'm in London (which will hopefully be in the near future) you can rest assured that I will be contacting you, and I will certainly be referring any friends or colleagues of mine (that will be traveling to London) to you, as well. Thanks again Michael and please stay in touch. Kind Regards -Mario
Michael,
Thank you once again for letting us stay in your home. We had an extremely fun time and will remember it for years to come. As a token of our appreciation, we officers would like to mail you a picture of our plane, matted and framed, signed by all of us.
Cheers,
Scott
