I was only in Paris for a brief, two-night visit and definitely wanted to stay in Montmartre. I contacted Jean-Michel to inquire about his listing and to inform him I was using my wife’s profile to book the trip since I didn’t have a profile of my own. He was quick to respond as was the case with any and all communications before my visit.
The apartment was beautiful and very thoughtfully designed. The room is just to the right after entering the front door and also down the hall from the main living area, providing privacy for both you as a guest and the hosts. The bed is very comfortable (something uncommon in many AirBnBs) and even has small, adjustable reading lights on each side. The shower is equipped with a very nice rain-shower head and there’s a beautiful, full-size tub for use as well.
Montmartre is a beautiful, amazing neighborhood complete with incredible restaurants (several within steps of the apartment), easy access to the Metro and well within walking distance of Sacré-Coeur. The area outside the room is very quiet and I slept like a baby. The room also has an automatic sun shade you can lower that blocks out all light in the morning.
If I could stay here every time I visit Paris I would. Jean-Michael is a wonderful host who answered every question I had about the neighborhood, Paris and spent almost 30 minutes talking to me one of the mornings with tips on what to see. He even made a reservation for me at a restaurant just downstairs that was a delicious meal.
A fantastic stay in Paris in a beautiful apartment with incredibly hospitable and friendly hosts! Merci!!
