This apartment was such a lovely place to relax at the end of the day. It is quite spacious, with a large dining table, a comfortable couch in the living room, and even a piano.
The Airbnb messaging was via Adrian, but Andree lives there, so there was a minor communication glitch for our arrival time, but Andree was lovely and welcoming, and even met us at the Metro stop (100 yards away) to lead us to the apartment.
We didn’t do much cooking, but the kitchen seemed to be well-stocked, though there is no microwave, and coffee making is limited to an espresso maker (uses Nespresso pods), and a single cup pour-over that we got filters for.
The location is fantastic. From the map, I worried that it was a bit far from the center of Paris, but that was actually an asset—the area is mostly locals, so the atmosphere is more French than tourist, with great restaurants in the neighborhood (better prices than in the tourist spots), and fantastic shops right nearby. We are big walkers, so we didn’t actually Ned to use the Metro—a 20-30 minute walk got us to the historic sites. All in all, it was a great place to stay.
