Our stay at Claire & Jean-Baptiste's apartment exceeded all our expectations. A friend and I booked a weekend trip to Paris quite spontaneously and were very happy that we found this little gem a few weeks in advance.
First of all, the location is prime! There are dozens of cool restaurants, cute cafés and hip bars just a few steps away from the apartment, actually we were so overwhelmed with the choice that we barely couldn't bring ourselves to leave the neighborhood to explore more of Paris, haha! It is also very close to several metro stops as well as to two main train stations (Gare de l'Est and Gare du Nord) and various bus stops, so you can reach about every corner of the city easily. However, since the neighborhood is so cool and there is lots to explore on the way, we almost always walked to a lot of sites, which is also totally doable. The apartment itself is equipped with everything you need; towels, blankets, glasses, coffee! I would like to outline that I have never stayed in a cleaner airbnb, or one that had such awesome thoughtful details like fresh flowers! We never met Claire and Jean-Baptiste, because they were not in the city on this particular weekend, but they left us a list with all the info and communication concerning check-in and keys was organised by them in advance and smooth. They checked on us several times during the weekend to make sure we were ok, which I found very nice and not self-evident.
And, last but not least: the little balcony with views over the roofs of Paris was magical and brought us a lot of joy.
Honestly, stay here if you can, it doesn't get better than this.
Thank you Claire and Jean-Baptiste!
