What a beautiful, beautiful apartment! We stayed here for our anniversary weekend and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We had been to Paris before and stayed at a hotel but staying at Michel's apartment was infinitely better, so much more freedom and comfort. The apartment is comfortable, cosy and definitely a unique experience of Parisian life!

Michel was a wonderful host and made us feel so welcome, making us feel at home straightaway. He gave us a tour of the Bastille area, which has plenty of patisseries and convenience stores nearby, as well as markets throughout the week and we found it to be the perfect location, with great transport links to easily get around the city. The local high street had an eclectic mix of design and high street stores and the area and apartment felt very safe.

All in all it was a wonderful weekend, in a wonderful apartment. If you are in any doubt about booking, just go for it! This was our first time using airbnb and it was a fantastic trouble free experience. Thank you Michel for everything!

PS- We tried the l'ebauchoir restaurant Michel recommended for our anniversary dinner - the food was amazing, definitely recommended the hake risotto and steak.
