What a superb gem of a discovery this was on AirBnb.
The space is actually a sizable bedroom down a long hallway of the host's floor-through home that's been converted into a studio apartment with a brand new full separate kitchen (stocked wth all essentials) and its own entrance. Not a "1 bdrm"(for US standards). It has an updated new bathroom with a stall shower. The toilet is in a separate powder room actually right outside the sleeping chambers, at end of this long hallway. There is no lock on this door to the hallway. Essentially whenever you use the toilet you technically step through the host's home. For me this created a sense of staying with the host but not together. As a solo female guest I didn't mind this setup and was comfortable.
Windows look into the impeccable building's quiet cobblestone courtyard. Extremely private and immaculate. I'm told by Parisians this area is an affluent residential neighborhood and I noticed it certainly was void of tourists, which I loved. Easy to find/get to.
Claire was an exceptional communicator. Offered wifi and essentials with class. Everything was easy, lovely and safe. Highly recommend for solo and female travelers -most of all grownups!--who want a non-touristy Parisian slice of life away from the overrated hip and trendy. I would love to come back. Memorable unique experience.
