Abdel was an excellent host. He met us promptly and provided a great overview of the very comfortable and cute apartment, keys and was in touch occasionally.
The apartment was truly wonderful - very clean and cute, and although up some rather slanted stairs in a old building, it was modern and bright. The living room looks out on the lively Marais, and we spent time relaxing there. The bedroom was quiet, located in the back, and the bed was huge and comfortable.
The bedroom, bathroom and shower were nice, clean with room for our "stuff". The separate toilet room was a bit small, although could use a fan.
Kitchen was just right for making coffee and breakfast - we went out for everything because the apartment is truly in the most fun and lively location in Paris.
