Outstanding!
Apartment -- a lovely place that is clearly also used by the family, rather than just an Airbnb rental. The quality of the furnishings, appliances, and personal touches reflect that this is not just a rental. The quality of the furniture throughout the apartment including the family room and bedrooms exceeded our expectations. The bluetooth audio speakers were also a great touch that we enjoyed. We spent most evenings after dinner in the beautiful family room listening to music, looking at photos, and catching up on the news.
Location -- absolutely perfect location for us! We love staying in Le Marais and the location of this apartment is perfect. It is just up from the Saint Paul metro station, right in the heart of some of our favorite boutique shopping and some of our favorite restaurants. For us, I do not think there is a better location in Paris. Having stayed in other Airbnbs in Le Marias, we expected some noise. There was none. The apartment is off a courtyard with a lovely ground floor entrance (so convenient to not have stairs) with no windows out to the public street. One bedroom has a set of windows that open up on the courtyard entrance, while the family room and the other upstairs bedroom open up onto a semi-private center courtyard that has a nice place to sit and enjoy coffee or a drink.
Welcome and orientation to the apartment -- this was done by Marie. She was exceptionally flexible in meeting us (communication through WhatsApp) and did a fantastic job giving us a quick walk through of the apartment.
