Her space really is perfect for the solo female traveler. Amanda was such a warm, welcoming host, yet also gives you a lot of privacy. She was very kind and shared her things with me over the 3 nights I stayed. Her space was a nice retreat from the noisy touristy parts of Paris, and you have a french window overlooking a small garden. The room is cute, cosy, and minimalist. Comfy little bed, too.
Her neighborhood felt very safe and is super convenient - bakeries and cafes everywhere, mostly locals (true Parisian people watching!), and only a 5 min walk to 2 metros and bus stop. Getting to the main attractions is about 20-30 minute commute, but it feels quicker.
The only inconvenient thing is the check-in hours depending on your arrival to Paris, but other than that, a great stay I recommend. I would be happy to stay with Amanda again (ask her about her art, book, and her job at a high fashion store in Marais!)
