Emmanuel’s flat could not have been more perfect for a week’s stay in Paris. Emmanuel was there to greet us when we arrived, and gave us a great introduction to the neighborhood, recommended sites to visit, restaurant recommendations, etc. There is so much to do and see in the Marais, and the best food in the world steps away from the flat in any direction. The flat itself is beautiful and exactly as pictured in the photos – although small, it felt spacious for two people. Comfortable bed, good shower, secure. It’s in an old building with lots of character, but with a modern kitchen and bathroom. We didn’t use the kitchen much, preferring to eat in the nearby cafes, but the fridge was stocked with breakfast items. A nice new washing machine that we also did not use. I noticed that many of the Paris apartments offered on AirBnB are walk-ups on high floors, whereas this unit is an easy third floor location AND
