Adeline is a great host - she is very nice and easy going, check-in was a breeze. The apartment is in a great area, young and full of life, and we especially liked the Rue des Martyrs, one of those picture-book-perfect Parisian streets with several restaurants, a few flower shops and lots and lots of patisseries and boulangeries. The apartment is thoughtfully decorated, clean, a very good place for a couple to spend a few days in Paris. It is also very Parisian, decorated very nicely with a mix of older pieces and new designer objects, and with the toilet separated from the bathroom (a typical layout in Paris). The place is also, it must be said, a study in the perfect use of space - well done! - and very quiet, facing two different inner courtyards. Having original wooden floors, and being in an older building, you can hear the neighbors walking in the apartment upstairs- let's say it adds to the authenticity. All in all, this is no typical Airbnb apartment, Ikea-furnished and with a bare minimum in amenities, but the house of someone who thought through every detail, and who invested a lot of time and energy in it. We left with a list of must-buy cooking books from the apartment - Adeline, being a patissier, has an amazing collection! We had a great stay, and we highly recommend Adeline as a host.
