Not a tourist neighborhood, so you get to live amongst the Parisian families. If you wake up before 10:00, you’ll be able to hear the French children on their way to school escorted by their parents. And at night you can walk down to the local restaurants that serve as a meeting spot for the families to allow the parents to drink and mingle with their friends, while the children play amongst themselves. There was no neighborhood like this that we visited during our stay. This Airbnb has plenty of the essential amenities needed. And there are several laundry locations right up the street. The metro is not ideally placed but if you don’t mind the 7-10 minutes through your neighborhood every morning or evening, you will not be bothered by this. The bathroom floor tends to get a wet due to there not being a door, so be cautious.
Lastly, I loved this spot. We would walk through all the touristy locations around the city and realize we stayed somewhere very special. We ran into no other tourists around here, and had the unique opportunity to observe and live the way true Parisians do in this neighborhood. I wanted to start my little Parisian family and move right back to this spot.
