Julien’s place is an utter delight. Tucked up in the attic of an traditional Parisian apartment block, it is absolutely what you imagine when you dream of Paris. From the wooden floors to the white walls and the large windows opening onto the street to the book-lined shelves, the apartment is completely charming. The bedroom is large by airBnb standards, and our daughter reported the full-size pull it couch in the living room was quite comfortable. The bathroom is large and equipped with a washer/dryer if you are in need on a longer trip. The space is accessible from a tiny elevator, a delight given not all buildings have an elevator. We made ample use of the well-equipped kitchen, often preferring to purchase food at the local grocery stores and dine in. (Julien helpfully provides a notebook with locations of good local restaurants and grocery stores). The location can not be beat - the Jardin de Tuileries is literally outside your door, and it is the shortest of walks to the Louvre or Champs Élysées. It is 30 minutes of walking to either Montmartre in one direction or Notre Dame in another or the Eiffel Tower, which suited us perfectly being here for Bastille Day. If you prefer, Metro stations are also close by. Julien was also very quick to respond to any questions we had, and helpfully arranged transfers for our trip to and from the apartment. I can’t recommend Julien’s place highly enough.
