Visiting Severine's home with my sisters for my mother's 80th birthday was a wonderful true Parisian AirBnB experience! In the heart of the beautiful, vibrant and friendly Marais district, the apartment is superbly located for metro, bus, and batobus (a hop-on, hop-off boat bus with a stop five minutes' walk away, by the Seine - a very relaxed way to see all the sights). The local area is great, and exploring the little back streets of Saint Paul or the Jewish quarter nearby was a great experience. The beautiful calm oasis of l'Hotel de Sully and la Place des Vosges is only three minutes' walk away. The entrance to the apartment is beautiful, with a gorgeous large wooden gate and a quiet haven of a courtyard, next to the atmospheric cathedral of Saint Paul et Saint Louis, where we were lucky enough to attend a candlelit Easter vigil. Severine's apartment has so much character, is spacious, clean, comfortable, superbly well-equipped and luxurious, with plenty of light, and views over the Marais and the next-door church. As a host, Severine was perfect; so generous in sharing her knowledge, including warnings about particular dangers and favourite places, and she was very accommodating and flexible with check-in times and bedroom arrangements. I felt that nothing was too much trouble for her, in order to make our stay memorable. We couldn't recommend this place and this host highly enough. Thank you so much, Severine, for letting us experience your home!
Only two little suggestions: If you could leave out a large old towel or other absorbent cloth, it would be easier to keep the bathroom tops dry to stop damaging the marble. Also, a few more hangers for clothes would be appreciated, and maybe a few hooks or a hatstand to hang clothes on in the master bedroom where there is no wardrobe. Maybe we will visit again some day...
