Antoine and Iris’s place is an absolute dream to stay in! Located in one of the best parts of Paris, only 10 mins from many metro lines and right on the edge of the most glorious park in Paris.
The apartment itself is not super big and is a bit tight with 4 people but absolutely manageable. The view is totally worth it and sitting and having breakfast, lunch and dinner in their beautiful glass boxed roof overlooking the Parisian landscape and Montmartre was an absolute dream.
There are a few things that are a bit run down in the apartment but it was fine for us (door handles broken/falling off, washing machine not working, not many cooking utensils) but it was perfect for us as we didn’t use the kitchen a lot (just for breakfast and a couple of dinners). The kitchen is pretty much a 1-man kitchen (maybe 2) anyway.
Antoine and Iris expect the apartment to be left as it was found. So we swept, vacuumed, took the rubbish out and tidied etc but didn’t mop as there wasn’t one in the apartment. I think that they expected us to leave it sparking clean whereas we just did a great tidy up due to a cleaning fee being included in the Airbnb price as usual. There was a bit of confusion here so just chat to Antoine and Iris about the house expectations beforehand, as normally guests don’t ever need to clean the Airbnb but it depends on the situation. They are the loveliest people! They were very easy to communicate with and gave us some great tips, we wish we could have met them!
There is no elevator in the apartment and you have to walk up many flights of stairs so I wouldn’t stay here if you are unable to!
Would 10000% recommend this apartment to anyone and would definitely stay here again. It has been my best stay in Paris so far and that’s definitely because of the apartment, the view and the location.
Thanks so much Antoine and Iris!
