Marielle is an excellent host with a supercool space — a two-floor loft in a converted warehouse in the 11th arrondissement, a hub for new restaurants. (Our favourite spot for lunch in the neighbourhood is Chez Aline; Mokonuts is also really good.) We loved Marielle’s sense of colour and design, her space is full of art and eclectic flea market finds — very Parisian, very chic! Parisian buildings tend to have a lot of access doors and codes, but we had no trouble getting in and out of the building. Our space in Marielle’s loft was large, bright, warm, cosy, and inviting. We found the ensuite bathroom and closets very spacious. There were lots of clean towels, soap, and toiletries like toothbrushes. Lastly, Marielle was friendly and helpful, neither too available or unavailable. The only thing we would change is having more time in our schedule to chat with her! We hope to stay with her next time we visit Paris. :-)
