This was my first Airbnb rental, and I was a little nervous...but Tatiana is an EXCELLENT host, and my stay in the Latin Quarter exceeded all my expectations!
Beautiful small apartment, on a very quiet side street but steps from a lively main street and Metro stop. Completely renovated with a modern kitchen and bath/shower, yet has genuine Parisian charm. The bed was extremely comfortable, with plenty of warm duvets, blankets, extra pillows, etc. I can't say enough about the neighborhood -- dozens of lovely shops (food, pastries, clothing, shoes, housewares, pharmacy, etc etc) within blocks, plus the Place Monge marketplace several days a week, a heaven for those who like to cook, shop, or buy antique musical instruments, for that matter - the photo opps are endless.
Tatiana met me at the street door as planned, and even carried my heavy suitcase up the one flight of curving stairs necessary to get to the elevator. The next day, she really went the extra mile for me: I could not figure out how to connect to the wi-fi, and when she tried to call me back, it turned out I had accidentally blocked her on my cell phone. So she came over and kept knocking - I couldn't imagine why anyone was knocking at my door - but she wanted to be sure I was connected, since she herself was going on a short trip later that day. Now THAT is what I call fantastic service!
Tatiana *always* answered my messages and texts immediately, and was so helpful in making my stay comfortable. (I come to Paris every year; this was my first Airbnb experience, but it won't be my last!)
In short, I highly recommend Tatiana's apartment to individuals, couples, or even a couple with a child (there's a foldout couch). Merci mille fois, Tatiana -- thanks a million, and I hope to see you next year!
