WOW. Where to even start? Laurence's beyond generous hospitality and communication is absolutely unmatched by any other Airbnb rental experience I have ever stayed in. Upon arrival we were greeted with fresh coffee, croissants, baguette & were given the full tour of the space. She generously allowed us to access everything in her space, from food & snacks in the fridge, to lots (and LOTS) of espresso, and all amenities the apartment had to offer. My fiancé and I were absolutely blown away by her excellent communication prior to our arrival and how she prepared a full list of local recommendations for amazing food & dining, popular excursions, house rules, and beyond. The apartment itself is so breathtaking and so so charming and located in one of the most magnificent areas of Paris (Marais). The pictures are EXACTLY how the apartment looks and it is so quiet within the courtyard, that you forget you're even in such a busy city like Paris. Spacious enough for my fiancé and I to enjoy the full range of the apartment and not feel too squashed or on top of one another. Wonderful cafes, bakeries, shopping and more nearby... 10/10 cannot recommend enough. Truly, I can't imagine staying anywhere else when we return to Paris (and yes, we will absolutely be returning). We are so in love with Paris and so in love with Laurence's fabulous apartment! Many many MANY thanks!!!!!
