Couple 1: Best of the four AirBNB places at which we stayed on this trip. Very private bedrooms (living area less so as students from a nearby school could peer into the kitchen) and at least 4 star standards in terms of amenities and modernness of the apartment (I would even say luxurious in many respects). Very central to touristy places around Paris but with a suburban feel. Handy Metro stations nearby. Great apartment to experience local Parisian life as a traveller rather than a tourist. The neighbourhood was amazing - I didn't want to leave it! Very secure and quiet. Sufficient hot showers for 4 people. We shopped at local supermarkets and cooked our own meals a few times - very functional and easy. We would definitely stay here again if we go to Paris. I am already missing it!!!

PS William was extremely accommodating - we wanted to leave our luggage on the premises after our check-out time for a tour and he met us at the apartment at 7:30 am in the morning to allow us to put our luggage in storage so we could pick it up later in the day.

Couple 2: William's apartment was fantastic; perfectly sized with spacious & quiet bedrooms, nice bathrooms, fast internet and central to almost everything. William was a pleasure to deal with and comes highly recommended! 5/5!
