5/5 I couldn't have asked for a better stay! Communication was lightening fast from the beginning, and check in/check out was a breeze. The apartment features a kitchen which we admittedly didn't get the opportunity to use, iron and ironing board (which came in handy for fancy nights out) and some really spectacular water pressure in the shower. The apartment itself is located within the walls of a larger complex so while it is close to the metro and 11th arrondissement life, everything becomes very peaceful and serene as soon as you enter the walls of the complex. It feels almost like entering a zen garden.
Within a block or two you can find wine shops, cheese shops, boulengerie, butcher, fish shop, fruit stand, market, and plenty of bars/restaurants. The metro is literally right outside the door.
The location is close enough to all the museums/landmarks/etc that we were never more than a 30 minute metro trip from anything we wanted to access. There was plenty to do in the neighborhood itself, yet far enough away from the touristy areas that we felt we could get a small taste of authentic Parisian living.
A couple things to note:
1) There aren't any curtains, but there's a shudder that can be rolled down to cover the window in the main room if you want to block out some of the light or give yourself some more privacy. It took us a minute or two to realize there's a bar to the right of the window that winds this up or down.
2) The shower water pressure is amazing and it gets really hot which is great! Just be careful exiting. The tub is slightly higher than the ground so if you're not paying attention you could fall.
3) This is a general Paris thing, but the metro shuts down around 12am on the weekdays and 1am on the weekends. Cabs can also be difficult to hail late at night, so unless you feel comfortable navigating the bus system, make sure to be close to home late at night. (fortunately there are plenty of bars and bistros in the area where you can finish off the evening so finding a place for a nightcap was never an issue, but be careful with late dinner reservations). There are apparently public bicycles available but we hadn't stayed long enough to explore that option...I'm not sure if you need an app to use those but it would be worth checking out...Paris seems like a really fun place to ride (though I say this as an avid cyclist in NYC so your mileage may vary).
All in all it was a great experience and my partner and I would love to stay in this exact airbnb again if and when we return. Happy travels!
