This is really a wonderful gem in the heart of Paris and one of my best Airbnb stays yet!
I made a last-minute booking during the super busy period of Fashion Week and the process was made so easy, with simple and straightforward communication. I booked the night before and was in by the following morning.
The apartment is located in the centre of Le Marais - a really stylish, vibrant part of Paris and one of my favourite places to be. The atmosphere in the apartment building was surprisingly very calm and quiet - perfect for a wind-down after a busy day. The neighbourhood is very safe and well located with amenities (amazing bakeries/cafes/bars/restaurants, shops, galleries, parks and metro stations) all within a stone's throw or walking distance, and it made my stay all the more easier.
Erin is such a wonderful host. Although I only saw her at check in/check out, she was so welcoming and accommodating, she helped me with recommendations on where I could purchase an item, as well as a later check out at short notice for my evening departure.
She has really taken wonderful consideration in adding special personal touches to make the apartment beautiful and it made a huge difference from previous visits to Paris. I was greeted with a beautiful souvenir mug, the most comfortable bed linens and pillows, a wonderfully clean toilet/bathroom and kitchen area, and even offered a selection of some snacks. The decor is wonderful and has the feel of a luxury hotel, with the warmth and comfort of a home (I'm still in love with the ceiling-to-floor curtains)! The kitchen is fully equipped with a cooker, dishwasher, microwave and even coffee machine, though in my short stay I wasn't able to take advantage of this. Taking things a step further, there was a lovely written-out note offering use of wipes and cleansing water left for guests in the bathroom.
Thank you so much Erin and Jeanne for making my stay so wonderful, comfortable and memorable. Very honoured to be your first guest and I highly recommend this to anyone looking for the perfect place in Paris. I will myself be back for future stays (if it's available as I'm sure it'll be in high demand)!
