Laura et Richard’s home was lovely. In a charming courtyard where on the other side of the door lies a (at times) bustling street. Very easy to get around from their location. Two metro stops within a few minute’s walk. The super market if you need anything in a pinch or want to cook at home is at the end of the block. A few metro stops from the Marais or Oberkampf. Then again, Paris is a few metro stops anywhere!
Hope your legs are strong as there are lots of stairs. The airbnb is located on a 3rd floor walk up and bedroom is in the loft. So if you have large luggages - well...get ready to use some muscles and get a workout and elevate your heart rate. lol. That said, every bit about my stay here was lovely and made me feel like I live in Paris already. Local vibe and feel. Friendly neighbors. I look forward to staying here again on a future visit.
