Our stay at Fred’s place was outstanding. I traveled to Paris for a 4 day visit with my parents and we had a blast!
Our check-in went really smoothly, Charles-André (bnbsitter) was very friendly and helpful. Since we arrived to Paris a bit earlier than expected, he was kinf enough to meet us at the apartment earlier than our agreed check-in time.
The apartment is actually more beautiful in person than in the pictures, the kitchen has every possible appliance you could think of and we felt right at home. My parents slept in the bedroom and I slept on the sofa in the living room and I was very comfortable. Bnbsitters thought of everything, there were plenty of towels and toilet paper and we had more than enough bed linens.
The area in general was great for us since we’re pretty much used to walking everywhere, Eiffel tower is about 3km walking distance away, Arc de Triomph about 750m, L’Opera 3,5km etc. – the location was perfect! There are a lot of grocery stores in the area, make sure to check out Rue de Poncelet about 300m from the apartment, it’s a market street with a bunch of fresh fruit, vegetables, fish, meat, cheese, anything you could think of and there is also a discount supermarket called Leader price, very cheap.
Bnbsitters were in touch all the time and answered all our questions, in fact, they went out of their way to make sure we settled in nicely and had everything we needed - I was pleasantly surprised.
