We loved our stay at Matthieu's place. His apartment is located in an interesting and vibrant neighborhood with lots of great cafes, food shops and restaurants and a useful little supermarket across the road. It's in easy walking distance from metro stops, parks and sights. We walked to the Luxembourg Gardens, the Marais and Rue Mouffetard with our two small children and made good use of the playgrounds in the Jardin des Plantes and the Arenes de Lutece, which are both just moments away on foot. The building itself is quiet and well maintained and Matthieu's apartment is spotlessly clean, spacious, comfortable and welcoming. Our 3-year-old loved sleeping in Matthieu's son's room, and we all enjoyed having a tranquil and comfortable home base in Paris. Although Matthieu wasn't in town he was always available to answer questions and provide assistance when needed. All up, a highly recommended airbnb experience.
