Prior to our stay Ed and Muriel had given us clear instructions on how to get to the apartment and notify them of our arrival.
Ed kindly helped us carry our heavy luggage up the 109 stairs, we were aware there was no lift access but the stairs are still an insurance test.
They were warm welcoming hosts greeting us with a bottle of champagne and list of romantic places to visit nearby for our 8 day wedding anniversary trip to Paris. The folder they have prepared was helpful with recommendations and local information along with a map of train routes.
The apartment is quaint, warm and having the balconies to overlook the local activities was great. A small fridge and hot plates were convenient for light meals.
The neighbourhood is multicultural, we don't speak French well but found enough English speaking locals so this wasn't a problem, so close for transport, a variety of eateries and walking distance to good shopping districts and markets.
We loved our time in Paris and enjoyed our stay in an old worldly atmosphere, definitely worth a try if you are new to the Airbnb experience.
Ed and Muriel were not there for part of our stay so we didn't get to thank them personally but we were able to contact them via email.
