An absolute dream home! I have stayed in many Airbnbs (in Paris and elsewhere) and this is, by far, my favorite. A truly authentic Paris home, steeped in both luxury and comfort.
So many original features (an entire wall of windows with authentic casings that open to the street below, stunning refurbished wood floors) with an overall modern and sophisticated feel with thoughtful design features throughout the space.
The apartment is exceptionally large with a massive open kitchen that easily seats six and has tons of natural light. The living space offers plenty of seating and room to relax. The thoughtful incorporation of the glass window spaces for the main bedroom and office reflex a balance of privacy while allowing the spaces to incorporate seamlessly into the main living areas. Even the smallest details - the bathroom fixtures and finishes, decor, bedding, and books, complement the beauty and function of the entire space. A true gem!
All the practical things are offered here as well - an extra large "American" fridge, tons of counter space, comfortable beds, newly (and luxuriously) remodeled showers and bathrooms, a washing machine and dryer (a unicorn in Paris!), a very secure building requiring multiple codes, an elevator for those with mobility issues, all situated in a charming neighborhood close to the very best of Paris, including Rue Montogueil, where you can find everything you need just a few steps away.
Most importantly, kind, thoughtful, and very welcoming hosts who graciously shared their home!
