We had an amazing stay. Our first Airbnb experience and we couldn't have been happier. The location was ideal. Our greeter, Victoria, was very charming, helpful and very willing to assist. The apartment was very large, particularly by Paris standards. We originally chose the apartment as it felt true to Paris. It was filled with character, the rooms were large - particularly the master bedroom. We were aware the spiral staircase would be somewhat challenging. It was to be approached with care but we were up and down regularly and it was fine. We felt very safe and secure and it felt like home away from home in no time. We used the kitchen extensively. As a family of four (two teenage boys), it was lovely to do big days in Paris and then select something healthy, easy and tasty from the local supermarket and return to put together a home cooked meal. The kitchen was well equipped and the appliances were all very efficient and reliable. All in all, it was an excellent choice for our needs and we were very happy.
