Francesca’s place was definitely one of he highlights of my trip. It is beautiful, it has stylish decor, it’s luminous and the view is like no other !!! It’s rather big in comparison to the typical parisian apartments, for me it has the perfect space. Everything looks modern and new and the decoration is delightful! I really appreciated the elevator since its in the 7th floor and it is mostly quiet despite the busy street outside. The location is perfect ! It’s close to lots of well known shops and also a lot of restaurants, local bars and nightclubs, I loved feeling like a local there. It’s 5 minutes from place de la Bastille and the metro is just across the street from the apartment. Everything is really close by metro and it has a walking distance away from Le Marais, a really trendy and hip neighborhood. You can also walk to canal Saint Martin, where lots of locals go there in front of the canal and enjoy a drink under the sunlight (I came in during summer time). Walking by myself I felt safe and the flat is 2 security codes away so I felt really secured.
Everything was also really clean, I was provided with clean sheets and towels and there where more in the closet. It has also a washing machine and drying rack and some cleaning supplies which I appreciated since I stayed for 2 weeks.
Francesca was also a perfect host, she checked up on me which was thoughtful and in an occasion where I forgot the keys inside, there was nothing I could do that night about it given the circumstances but Francesca responded quick and tried her best even when it was really late in the evening. The next day I met his friend Federico who gave me the spare key and walked me home.
Overall, this place is a jewel and I absolutely loved it. I will for sure come back and I would recommend it highly.
