This was our first time using Air BnB and we were really impressed and pleased with our experience! The main points are that it was a really nice, clean apartment in a great location and we would definitely look at staying there again on our next visit and would highly recommend it.
Enguerran's place is a perfect little apartment, in a great location - walking distance to Gare du Nord, Gare du L'est and Poissonniere which is then easy access to all main tourist attractions / shopping area's. Plenty of bakeries & supermarkets nearby. (If you haven't been to the Catacombs before down by Denfert-Rochereau I would definitely recommend it - amazing & interesting experience!)
The apartment is situated on a quiet street, although there is a school a block away and as we stayed from Friday - Sunday in September, we we're woken early Friday morning by the children. Although this was a minor thing - just something to be aware of depending on your type of trip.
It's on the first floor, around a really small cute little courtyard. The sofa bed is one of the most comfortable sofa beds I have ever stayed on, so was pleasantly surprised. It is also really easy to open and close up, so we did fold it up each morning, so we could have the use of the sofa and also have more space during the day.
The small open plan kitchen with breakfast bar, was perfect for our needs, as we only had breakfast then ate out for dinner during our stay. But it is perfectly ample to cook dinner as well. There is also a small wardrobe & shelves in the hallway which was perfect and a small bathroom, which is quite compact, but it's clean and the shower is lovely and powerful!
The extra bonus was the free wifi! There was also a tv, although we didn't use this and a Juliette balcony, with nice big large windows to let plenty of air and light in.
Enguerran's friend Pierre met as the apartment for both check in and check out and was very helpful & kept in communication to check we were ok.
All in all a really great trip and lovely apartment! Thank you to both Enguerran & Pierre!
Thanks,
Sophie & Josh
