My friend and I stayed at Assif's Parisian studio for three nights. It was our first AirBnb experience and honestly, it was fantastic.

Assif's place is exactly as the pictures show, the size, the furniture, the colours - everything. The place was very clean, and well equipped - towels, bed linen, kitchen utensils, speakers for music, and even heaters were provided. It had a really cosy overall feel and the windows were very Parisian! We enjoyed breakfast in the kitchen by the window on a sunny day and it was just perfect.

Assif himself was also excellent. Although we did not personally meet him, he replied to all my messages promptly and always in a friendly, polite manner.

Also worth mentioning is Maria - the guardian in the building. She is so lovely and friendly. She helped us to the room and came by to make sure that we knew how to operate the heaters.

The location of Assif's flat was well placed for the Marais and Rue Oberkampf, which has some really cool, quirky bars. It is on a very nice street too. However, it was a bit more further away from places like Les Champs Elysée and the Seine, which is where we were most of the time (the big tourist attractions) - there were quite a few metro changes. But this wasn't a huge issue. If you want to hang out mostly in the Marais, Republique and Oberkampf, then the location is perfect.

Overall, we had a wonderful, comfortable stay, and I would definitely recommend Assif's studio!
