Nathalie's apartment is beyond wonderful. The location, directly across the street from Square du Temple on rue du Temple, could not have been more perfect for us. If you're afraid of a little city noise, don't worry - the windows block it out perfectly.
The place was clean as a whistle, the artwork on the walls and the splendid collection of books, all made it seem like a true home for travelers. There was more than enough of everything, including anything you might need to prepare your own meals, in a practically brand new kitchen. There was a bottle of wine, the fridge was stocked with beers , juice, water, butter, jams, sauces and so on - as was the pantry. Rue de Bretagne (one of our favorite food shopping streets) is one minute away, and the finest cheeses, breads, pastries, roast chickens, etc. are at your fingertips. I cannot recommend Nathalie's apartment highly enough, and we look forward to a return visit. Easily one of the top airbnbs we've ever stayed in, and we've been using rental apartments on our travels for close to 20 years. It's the little touches that count - and even for our departure, there was a taxi waiting for us downstairs.
Merci beaucoup, Nathalie and Jean.
