I had the perfect stay in Paris due to the wonderful apartment I rented from Emmanuel’ through AirBnb. The apartment was exactly as described in the ad, was well situated in the Marais, had a great view of the Carnavalet Museum, was clean and tidy, and had a very comfortable living space. Emmanuel provided helpful information that included nearby restaurants, bakeries and grocery stores, clear instructions on how to use the washing machine, and guidebooks and directions to many tourist sites in Paris. I also very much appreciated the food items left for me in the refrigerator (jams, milk, water, orange juice). Emmanuel is the perfect AirBnb host and his well situated Marais studio apartment is perfect for 1-2 people needing a place to stay in Paris. Others have complained about the elevator, and even though it was small (could hold 1-2 people or 1 person and luggage) I greatly appreciated it and was glad to have it.
