A Remarkable Stay In Paris Starts With The Right Choice Of Lodging.
That is exactly what Cyrille's place was for us: a family of four (two adults and two teens) who spent a week around New Year.
It starts with the location that allows you a four-minute walk to the Champs-Elysées Avenue and subway station (line 1 - connection with most of the other lines). It is also at a ten-minute walk from the Triumph Arc. If you like the prospect of renting bikes or electric-scooters, they are just as near. Convenience stores are all over the adjacent blocks and a more traditional supermarket is four blocks away ( fifteen-minute walk). Because of its localization inside the building, the unit offered a surprising quietude, despite the intense day-and-night life of the neighborhood around the holidays.
The appartment has the size ideal for four people that plan to spend most of the day out, navigating the city, but need a place to recharge at the end of the day. Two retractable double beds will give you circulating space when not sleeping. It is true that our family travels light, each one taking a carry-on and one single bigger suitcase. But, by keeping your luggage organized, it will also help with the space management.
The unit was handed over to us super clean. The amenities available in the rental worked 100%. We made use of most of them: coffee maker, microwave oven, stove, dish-washer, cloths washer and drier, hair drier, etc. In fact, the alignment of the close by supermarket and well equipped kitchen gave us the freedom of out-of-hours breakfast and simple meals at a reduced cost.
Staying there for this time of the year was really comfortable. The shower delivers plenty of hot water and the radiator-based heaters keep the rooms warm.
The host is very nice and attentive. He will respond to your questions and requests within a couple hours (France business hours) from the time you are considering booking the place up to the point you leave it to go back home. He will greet you personally and will go over all the amenities. He will also give recommendations for close by restaurants and bakeries if you are interested.
This hassle-free Air BnB was a treasure found and made our trip to Paris all the more enjoyable. The only concern of ours was what attractions to visit during that week.
I would definitely return to Cyrille's rental and I highly recommend him.
