We definitely recommend staying at Laure and Joseph’s place. First, the hosts are incredibly welcoming, communicative and helpful. They are also generous. Second, the place is exactly as pictured. It is highly functional, cosy, and located in a highly desirable area. It’s steps from Rue Cler and close to a metro stop. There are great restaurants and bakeries within walking distance (we recommend Kozy for breakfast, but it can get packed if you’re heading there past 10am). There were 4 of us: two adults and 2 children under 10 and we all fit comfortably. The kitchen has most equipment you need. My favourite item of course was the Nespresso machine (Laure supplies coffee pods). It also has a stove, microwave, dishwasher and is fully stocked with dish ware and utensils. The dining area is open and right next to the front windows. We opened them every meal and enjoyed the breeze. The neighborhood is quiet. The master bedroom is the most spacious room in the house and has a cute balcony just as pictured. The bathroom is split between a toilet room and sink & tub room. I believe that’s standard in many houses In Europe. We washed our clothes a few times using the washing machine but had to hang the clothes to dry as dryers are not readily available like in the US. There was no elevator but Laute helpful bring our luggage up. It rained a few times while we’re in Paris and there are umbrellas that we were able to use. We made great memories in this place and do recommend it. Thank you Laure and Joseph for your hospitality!
