It seems the majority of Airbnb places anymore are basically furnished apartments, solely used for short-term rentals and completely bare. Part of what made using the service great was the feeling of being a local, in a proper home in any given place. John’s place gives you that feeling of truly living like a local. If you’re reading this you’ve obviously checked out multiple listings, so you’ll probably have noticed the cute Parisian trend of calling tiny closet-apartments “cocoons” for the same rate or higher as this one (I spoke with someone staying in one of the “cocoons” and he couldn’t stand completely upright due to the ceiling being so low). John’s place does have some stairs, being a walk-up as described in the ad, but the reward for that is having a normal sized apartment with all the amenities, in a great neighborhood and close to everything. I would stay here again in a heartbeat, completely recommend!
