Exceptional, and therefore highly recommended!!! Our full experience with Caterina's apartment has been perfect, from beginning to the end. Not only did Caterina respond quickly to our last minute request, but her apartment is simply exceptional, and clearly above AirBnB usual standard.
The apartment is like an island of style and comfort, in a perfect location for who wants to be in a typical Parisian neighbourhood close to some of the best spots of the French capital. The pictures and descriptions are perfectly in line with the reality. The apartment has been renovated by Caterina with a very stylish and elegant touch, to combine design and functionality and create a heaven of comfort and quietness right by the side of rue Caulaincourt, just two minutes away from Sacré Coeur.
Everything within the apartment has been carefully designed, creating a beautiful atmosphere. All necessary equipments are included (cable TV with effective Internet, Nespresso coffee machine, Washer dryer, multi function oven, hoover, etc…) and in perfect condition. The apartment will be very comfortable for 2 adults, and the sofa in the living room provides an additional bed underneath, that can be used for a child (as we ended up doing from time to time for our 4 year old daughter), and the space can be divided by some elegant sliding panels to create a 2nd room in no time. The apartment features also plenty of storage space, which is also very helpful to feel comfortable after unpacking the suitcases.
Although Caterina was not present in person during our stay, she delegated one of her friends, Milena, who met with us for the check-in. Milena was very nice and helpful, to the point of sending us a list of recommended spots where we could source good quality products nearby, as well as have dinner in a nice atmosphere with our 2 little girls (knowing that with a 15 month and 4 year old, most restaurant outings can become challenging, Milena provided us with great spots that are a bit less formal, but still very nice). Just the perfect extra touch for us to get the best out of our Parisian experience!
In summary: great location, beautiful apartment, nice hosts - a perfect combination which contributed to a very nice stay in Paris, and leads us to recommend Caterina’s place without any restriction to anyone who will be appreciative of a fully renovated place in the Montmartre area.
