My sister and I stayed in Casper and familys flat for five days in May. It was perfect! We loved it!
The flat:
What a welcome. French jazz from the stereo sets the scene. Clean smell, fresh flowers, light, tasteful, functional and modern decoration with funny details and coordinated colours. The kitchen was functional and contains everything you need and more. Fresh fruit, little jams, juice, butter, coffee and Kusmi tee. The bathroom was clean and beautiful. Had shampoo, hairdryer (a good one with disperser!) and a wonderful shower. The beds are good, not to soft. A bookcase contained numerous books, brochures and maps of Paris, electricity adaptors and toys for kids, a drawer had sewing stuff. Wardrobes with plenty of hangers. The small court in the back of the house was green charming with a bench. We sat there and had a glass of wine.
The area:
Multicultural, young and amongst the parisians. The area around "Canal Saint-Martin" was very charming. Lots of cafes, restaurants and interesting little shops. Everything you need is close by. We used the Velib bikes for transport. There was a stand 30 meters from the flat. The Seine was within walking distance. We walked and biked everywhere. Casper and familys recommendations of restaurants were excellent.
Overall we can highly recommend the charming flat of Casper and family. We had everything we needed and more to it.
