Journey to the Apartment from CDG was supposed to be just a direct line from the airport but our journey got interrupted by the protest so we arrived really late but still cheerfully greeted by Carlo's helper. She doesn't speak English but managed to show us all the important things around the house. So there was no issue. Once arrived Paris, Carlo made efforts in calling and texting our whereabouts and ensuring a smooth journey to the apartment. The Apartment was super easy to find. And the neighbourhood is perfect for our 10 days stay. It has all the amenities and conveniences in every corner! It's literally 2 mins walk to Centre Pompidou. It's walking distance to Notre Dame and the river. Apartment is on the 5th floor. Very Parisian and chic and comes complete with a fully working kitchenette, seperate bathroom/toilet, the bedroom fitted with a real double bed, a leather sofa bed in the living room, 3 huge windows with sun-block-out panels. It is very spacious, clean and comfortable. Our favourite hang out place was the roof top terrace with jaw dropping view of the Eiffel tower in all its glory! We drank and dined at the rooftop a few nights with other friendly residents. There are a couple of supermarkets nearby. Although it is in the centre of all the attractions, but minus all the typical tourists so we could get a feel of how locals live in this neighbourhood. Les Marais neighbour is very chic and offers an array of dining and drinking venues. This is my favourite Airbnb apartment so far and look forward to staying at this same apartment on my future trips to Paris! Well done to Carlo and his helper and thank you for being a wonderful host! Best wishes from Tim!
