We had a wonderful 6-night stay. Apartment was exactly as pictured. Decore a little eclectic while all very comfortable, clean and everything in the kitchen worked well. The bathroom was great - one of the best and nicest showers (with elbow room) we've found in european Airbnbs. The immediate area was super to explore with a couple metro stops nearby that allows you to branch off to anywhere in this wonderful city. Two flights of steps (with a small/tight lift we didn't bother to use) ... again, we found everything to be exactly as was described. We actually never met Thierry as he was out of town but the arrangements he has with Hocine in the shop on the corner was super easy and efficient. We let ourselves in after receiving keys from Hocine and were good to go. Shout out to the very close by la Maison d'Isabelle for pastries and les Pipos for lunch/dinner/late snacks. We truly enjoy Paris.
