What a fantastic space. To me, this unit exemplifies the strength of AirBnb over hotels. My sister and I had separate bedrooms and baths. Good. But, it is the common space which makes living in the unit special. And, with the open, airy, plant filled space, it was truly exceptional. It makes the downtime in the apartment communal and fun. It is a very special.
We are not late night people and greatly appreciated the quietness. The building, including the entrance, are set off from the street. We found the noise as a result to be minimal.
Also, I have done a fair number of AirBnbs and Alexandre is truly an excellent host. Immediate availability responding to questions. None of the attempts to get more money if he can fairly accommodate early or late check-outs, which I think are common in Paris. We really felt that he wanted to do everything he could to assure we had a great visit. And, we did..
