I had a fabulous time staying at Christina's apartment. It was home away from home! First, the apartment was modern, very clean, and had everything a person could want to make their stay enjoyable. The two most important things for me, the bed and the shower, were fabulous. During my stay, Paris had extremely high temperatures (100 F); however, the apartment remained fresh, the advantages of being on the ground floor. The address is very close to Place de la Republic, a place for rallies, protests, and celebrations. Yet, I heard nothing! The location is perfect. I was within walking distance of the Marais. The Metro Republic was the jumpoff location to visit any part of Paris. There are four boulangeries, five supermarkets, and many restaurants in close proximity. Christina is a wonderful hostess. She showed me how the appliances worked (the washer and dryer alone are worth booking this apartment) and had suggestions on where to visit. I would give this Airbnb six stars if it were possible. I plan to rebook it for my next trip to Paris.
