STOP!!! If you are looking to be in the center of it all in Paris with a max 15-30 min walk to most of the big attractions...this is it. I stayed here for a total of 6 days. Food stores, restaurants, banks, coffee/pastry shops, metro, and pharmacies all around you. This was as convenient as it can get for my first time in Paris (from NYC).
Sure, there are other spots and even cheaper spots, but I describe this place as a huge Value. This is where we can separate the “host”, a “good” host, and SUPER host. Jordan was an absolute Super Host. My flights out were delayed and rescheduled, he went above and beyond (even blocking availability to the apartment) so that I could sort out the mess and eventually head out. If I had to “find” another location last minute, it would have cost me dearly as it was over the weekend. It goes without saying that upon arrival he adjusted the check-in process to my flight. Communication with Jordan is top-notch.
The place itself is small and compact. This seems to be a norm in these older renovated buildings. The place was comfortably clean and ready to go. It is ULTRA secure, with 2 sensor doors, and a key activated elevator. This is the most secure AirBnB I have ever visited...and yet the neighborhood is on the high-end spectrum of living.
Great “First” spot to AirBnB in Paris without a doubt. If I had to do it over again, I would have gotten a rental bike (ended up using Lime scooter) to truly flex the logistics of being so centralized. It will definitely be a go-to place if I return.
