This apartment had great amenities and was very well laid out (and had a super comfy bed). We thought that the decor was really cute and the hosts were very helpful and responsive to our questions. The only reason we are giving this listing a 4 star review is that we were hoping to be a bit closer to the Marais than we were (about a 10-15 minute walk). As far as the neighborhood is concerned, there are a bunch of great non-touristy cafes and restaurants and its a very young and vibrant population living there. This place is great for a seasoned Paris traveler (or travelers just looking for a non-touristy location) but if you are looking to be in the heart of the major attractions, be prepared for a good amount of walking or metro-ing. Otherwise, we thought this was a great airbnb!
