Stayed for 5 nights over the Christmas holiday. Simply put, of the 25 or so Airbnb homes I’ve stayed in, this was my favorite. The location really can’t be beat; it’s a short walk from the heart of the Marais, Oberkampf, the islands, etc. The space itself had real style, but it was still comfortable and full of clever little efficiencies. We cooked a lot, and the kitchen was more than ample for whipping up a Christmas feast. The bathroom is fabulous and big, the washer/dryer is top of the line (we have an efficiency two-in-one in our NY apartment and it does NOT work anywhere near as well as this one), and there is a ton of natural light. Caveat emptor: this is still an apartment in a major city, so stairs need to be managed and it’s not always totally quiet, but, hey, that’s big city living, baby. Anyway, loved it. It made us feel more a part of Paris while simultaneously providing us a peaceful retreat.
Brava, Zoé!
