We were first time Airbnb guests, and also first time travellers to Europe with a family of five (incl 3 teenagers). Location was fantastic; firstly very easy to get to from CDG - just get the RER B to Gare du Nord, and simple ten minute walk, and secondly, very handy to a couple of metro stations. Also very close to boulangeries and supermarkets. Apartment was very secure, with keypad access to entry gate, and then 2 locked doors. Alex gave us the use of a mobile wifi device which was super helpful, and also the tip to use the Citymapper app which made getting around extremely easy. We would absolutely recommend this apartment and also Alex as a host - he met us on arrival, explained everything, and also gave us great tips. Thanks so much Alex.
