This was our first experience with Airbnb and we could not have been happier. Michel went above and beyond to welcome us to his apartment and the neighborhood. He gave us a great tour of the Bastille area, walking with us to the open air markets, a fantastic cheese shop, restaurant recommendations, and even made sure we knew how to buy tickets for the metro. There are 2 metro stops just minutes by foot and we foud the location very convenient yet still quiet at night. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated and quite spacious. The kithcen has everything you need should you want to cook meals and Michel even provided orange juice, milk, coffee and home made jam. This was the perfect choice for our stay in Paris. Thank you, Michel!
