Our family was so very lucky to have the chance to stay in Marlene's 'dream' airbnb on a quiet residential street off the bustling Rue de Lyon. The location was superb! A few blocks to the Gare de Lyon (train and metro station) and a couple of blocks in the other direction to the Carrefour market which had practically ANY food and wine experience you might want to buy. Cafes and restaurants abound in the neighborhood, and the airbnb is only a few blocks from the start of the 4.5 km Greenway, an emerald jewel in the heart of Paris.
The place itself is arranged in vertical living spaces: magnificent kitchen in the basement (we cooked, ate, and played cards at the large ktichen table), hang-out space on the street level floor, and bedrooms and bathrooms on upper levels. The beds were, oh so comfortable. The place was very clean, quiet, and met all of our needs.
Marlene was the perfect host. She responded quickly to any questions we sent.
We would love to go back and stay there any time (if Marlene has availability!!!)
Our family thanks you so so much, Marlene!!!
