While I’ve been on Airbnb for a few years, I had never actually booked a stay until now. And I just had THE best experience with Sébastien! Not only is the apartment in the neighborhood to be, it was exactly as pictured, and Sébastien was the most amazing host. From the day I booked the apartment, he made sure to keep me in the loop with the check-in process, sent me useful information on how to retrieve the key, access the apartment, and where everything was, and made sure to notify me with important city events that were taking place during my stay. He realized that the day I was scheduled to leave, there was a national strike announced and let me know in advance so I could secure transportation back to the airport safely. The apartment was also great. The beds were comfy, the kitchen well equipped, the bathroom had both a soaking tub and a shower, and, while Le Marais is a busy area and the street sometimes got busy, you couldn’t really hear anything in the apartment unless you opened the windows (which we didn’t because it’s winter and it was cold out). The building itself is really charming, and the elevator was actually super helpful to bring all the luggage upstairs. I seriously can’t wait to go back to Paris! I wouldn’t doubt booking this apartment again as it was exactly as advertised and Sébastien was the perfect host! 14/10 recommend!!!
