I can’t recommend highly enough Caroline and Jean’s place on Ile de Cité in Paris. The apartment is in a perfect location to see all of Paris, with the Seine right outside your door. It’s hard to believe there is such a great apartment in this location. You are 2 minutes from Notre Dame and a 10 minutes walk from the Louvre. Metro stations are 5 minutes in any direction. The Latin Quarter, St. Germain, and Le Marais neighborhoods are within a few minutes walk as well. The apartment itself is spacious (especially when compared to European hotels) and comfortable. The 2 bedrooms were great for our family of 4. There is one bath, but the toilet and shower are in separate but adjacent lockable rooms with their own sinks, so we were able to make good time in the morning even with the four of us. (Jean is working on a second bathroom). Amenities such as universal outlet adaptors, hairdryers and high quality bathroom toiletries are all provided. It’s also worth noting that even though it is located in an area near Notre Dame and several restaurants, the area is pretty quiet in the late evenings and early mornings. It’s a city and you’re going to have some street noise - that’s a given with any place you’ll rent. We had no trouble getting to sleep or issues with being awoken. The area is also very safe with a police station located on the block behind the apartment.
Jean and Caroline are great hosts. They take the time to walk you through the features of the house and provide you with a very detailed manual of the house that also includes recommendations for local restaurants, local tours, and other services. They also provided us with a personalized cake on our arrival, as well as milk and juice for our stay. They are super-responsive, both prior to and during your stay, regardless of what part of the world they are at when you reach out. We rent from AirBnb about once a year on vacation and always have great hosts, but I have to say that Jean and Caroline might be the best hosts we’ve ever interacted with. We could tell by reading all the reviews for this apartment that they’d be great to deal with, and we were not disappointed.
In short, stop looking and book this apartment. Can’t beat it for the location, quality of facility, and price. Let Jean and Caroline welcome you to Paris. You will not be disappointed.
