Had the BEST time at Jacques' place this June. My friends and I all booked on airbnb around the city for a few days and ours/Jacques' was by far the best! Super clean, stocked with everything (extra sheets, towels, even milk for coffee and a US power converter!). I'm also 4-months pregnant so having a nice clean spot, near the metro - with an elevator! - was a major score. It's small, but more than enough room for a great stay. Also has an good fan and good breeze from the open windows, so it didn't get too hot.

I didn't get to meet Jacques but his awesome neighbor checked me in warmly and I was instantly happy with our luck. The place is located next to the Chatelet les Halles Metro station, which accesses pretty much all of Paris AND the RER, which means getting to the airport was a piece of cake. Our friends had no such luck ;) There are a million things to do/see within walking distance and the restaurants right downstairs were great. (My husband ordered the "big" steak at Marylin's Cafe and it was HUGE! Awesome food.)

Can't say enough good things about the stay. Hope to be back!
