Nicolas' apartment Le Nodier is exquisite. It is simply the most perfect Parisian dwelling, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay. This apartment is one of the few places that actually looks better in real life than it does on the website, and as you can tell, the pictures are amazing. The apartment would very comfortably sleep two, and it is impeccably well designed and cared for. This may be one of the only apartments in Paris with TWO outdoor balconies. The wifi works very well, and it is easy to access the apartment with a code from the street. I have NO complaints with the apartment and will be back to stay at it again in the future. I intend to recommend it to any friends or family visiting Paris. Finally, Nicolas was an incredibly attentive host and would always reply with useful assistance very quickly. This was my first experience on Airbnb, and it ranks highly enough that I will now seek to check Airbnb before considering hotels when evaluating other future vacations.

There are only two possible drawbacks I can think of. One - the Montmartre neighborhood, while amazing and stylish, may not be for absolutely everyone. It is a bit further away from the standard tourist locations of central Paris and the Left Bank, and the surrounding neighborhood is a little rougher than other arrondisements. A single woman not used to living in a city might feel a little uncomfortable in some areas at night, but it is by no means rough or unsafe. Second - if anyone were tremendously claustrophobic, there is a very nice, modern, and working elevator in the building, but it is very, very small. The apartment is seven flights of stairs up, so it is much easier to use the elevator. That said, I'm 6'5" and easily fit in it with two medium sized suitcases.

Again, I only share these two items to indicate that there is almost nothing I can think of to share as negatives on the apartment or my experience in it. It is beautiful and well-appointed, the entire experience was seamless, and Nicolas was tres gentil and very helpful as a host. The apartment has my highest recommendation.
