Like pretty much every review here says, Nicola's apartment (and equally he) is a gem in the heart of the Marais. We loved how chic, classic, and spacious the space was--a choice of comfortable sofas to rest, lots of mirrors, great art, places to hang our clothes, and a prime location in the best neighborhood. Nicola went above and beyond as a host to make sure we knew everything about the building and apartment, helped us with our luggage, and assisted us with getting a taxi from Paris to our next destination. He is down-to-earth, friendly, and knows the city! He clearly wants his guests to experience the best Paris has to offer including great recommendations for restaurants and bars, which we frequented and were not disappointed. This is a great Airbnb--you'll get what you pay for and will have a great time in Paris.
