Life in Paris

It was in an intriguing neighborhood. We felt like we were part of a community and not tourists. Loved the amenities like the Monoprix. Also loved the avant guard house- all the amenities of home. We felt very safe.

A pretty, peaceful place in the middle of everything.

Benoit’s place is so comfortable. You have access to everything you need inside and outside. It’s perfectly situated to walk the Canal District or to access the best of the 10th and 11th. Metro is easy to reach for longer journeys. Most of all the way the property is well withdrawn from the street gives you a great sense of privacy and peace. Would gladly stay here again on our next return to Paris.

Paris Experience

A great stay at this quiet flat that is convenient to all of Paris. Not more than a couple of blocks from the metro this was a great way to be outside of the tourist area but with easy access. We loved the house but maybe more importantly loved being able to go to the corner bakery every morning and being close to some nice restaurants. Host is great and patiently answered our questions before and after arrival. And the garden was an extra bonus as we had poppies and roses blooming the whole time we were there! If you are looking for a spacious and simple Paris flat this is a great find. Thanks Benoit for hosting us!

Well appointed and spacious apartment

Wonderful, well-appointed apartment convenient to multiple metro lines. We enjoyed it thoroughly. Benoit was most accommodating. We loved having a fireplace. Mr. Bricolage is right down the street for firewood. Stores, markets and bakeries are all close by. I would recommend this apartment to anyone.

Fantastic and unique house near Canal St. Martin

I felt so lucky to have stayed in this unique oasis of a home in one my favorite areas in Paris. It's truly a refuge from a long day of exploring. Very quiet with comfortable beds and AC in the summer which was crucial. I loved the bathroom with the skylight and the peaceful private garden. It's very quiet and spacious and would love to return in the future. Benoit is a wonderful host and very communicative.

Great stay

Had a great stay at Benoit's residence. The unit is lovely and Benoit was great to deal with. I felt confident that it would be a great experience by the strong communication provided prior to our arrival. The unit is close to the metro and has some great bakeries, etc very close. Felt very safe in the gated community. Met a few neighbours that share the courtyard and were all lovely. Would definitely recommend.

All expectations exceeded in this Paris VRBO

This home is exactly how it is represented - pleasant, individual, a little hip. The kitchen was spacious and welcoming. The beds were very comfortable, the bathroom modern. Close to Goncourt Metro station, it was easy to get anywhere we wished to go. (I highly recommend the pear and pistachio cake at the boulangerie across the street!) Our host Benoit was extremely prompt and responsive. He met us at check-in and made sure we were comfortable. My friend and I highly recommend Benoit’s accommodations.

In the heart of "real" Paris

My friend and I loved the location of this unit. It felt like a real city neighborhood and gave us a taste of the experience of everyday Parisians. It was a short walk to the Metro; a few steps to a grocery and a fabulous bakery (wonderful croissants or quiche for breakfast daily); the neighborhood cafes had delicious food for reasonable prices; we felt the entire area to be warm and welcoming. Easy walks to the Canal, Place de Republic. Our host offered flexible check-in/check-out. The apartment was comfortable with a/c in the bedrooms and windows downstairs to let in the freshness. The apartment was super QUIET.

Relaxing base for Paris sightseeing

Benoit was very welcoming and briefed us clearly. The "industrial", stylish decor and intruiging art is quirky enough to make the experience feel unique and special, yet everything is practical and comfortable with good quality bedding and generous towels. We spent long days happily visiting museums and art galleries and particularly valued how stress-free it was to buy groceries, bread and patisserie all within a couple of minutes walk. Our home-cooked evening meals (plenty of equipment available) were enjoyed in the cosy courtyard full of green and thriving plants. The view out of the main bedroom is green and pleasant. The property is secluded and quiet, whilst there are plenty of local bars and restaurants. There are many atmospheric lights, but a couple of task lights for reading and in the bathroom would help. The metro is just 10 minutes away and is very efficient. We have already recommended it to other family members as a good base for sightseeing. Thank you to our hosts!

Nice appartment - good insurance recommended !

The appartment is nice and has an individual style, good for up to four people. Some parts need a bit of renovation (e.g. door second sleeping room or kitchen countertop, but overall it is o.k. We had two negative issues during our stay: a) the cat of the neighbour whined several nights, which was really loud in the small courtyard b) we had a broken chair (glue between legs and seat didn't hold any longer). We informed the owner and agreed, that we would pay for the repair. But without any further notice a withdrawl of 500 € was debited from our account. That exceeds the current value of the chair or the repair cost by far. NOT FAIR !!!.

Quiet, Comfortable Home Close to Canal St Martin

We've rented several properties through VRBO in Paris, and this one is by far our favorite. It was exactly as billed: a quiet, spacious, well-appointed home in a non-touristy neighborhood full of amenities: markets, boulangerie, restaurants/bars, etc. The house is located on a private passage of homes & small businesses that gets no foot-traffic at night except for residents. You can sleep with the windows open and hear little if anything of the surrounding city. All that and very comfortable beds too! The house has a big kitchen/dining area that lends itself well to group cooking and dining. There were three of us (one couple + friend); the home would very comfortably accommodate 4 people, thanks to open floorplan downstairs and two toilets--one per floor. Nearby bus & metro (Goncourt) lines get you most anywhere in central Paris within 20 minutes or so. If you opt for walking, it's about a half-hour walk to the heart of the Marais. Host Benoit provided us with a gracious and thorough orientation to his home and neighborhood, and left us with detailed notes about where to eat and shop during our weeklong stay. We appreciated his responsiveness from booking through arrival, and his willingness to entrust us with his house. We highly recommend it on all counts!

Great location on super quiet alley

Beniot was the perfect host! He met us at the house and showed us around to ensure we new how everything worked. The house had everything we needed to make small meals and do laundry during our stay, and plenty of room for 4 adults I am a light sleeper and this was the perfect location. We were off the main street down an alley way and tucked in 100M back. We didn't hear any street noise and though there were other residents in our courtyard, the place was quiet after 9pm (except one Friday night when the neighbors had a party with loud music until 2am). The beds were firm and super comfortable for us and the blackout curtains made it perfect for sleeping. For any with mobility issues, not only is there an open staircase but there are a couple of concrete stairs stepping down into the bathroom and a step up into each bedroom. Not a problem for anyone in our group though. There is a bakery across the street and a grocery store right at the corner and two additional grocery stores next to the metro station and that was less than a quarter mile away and we used that stop often! If you are active and enjoy running there is a park, Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, with great paved trails for running and beautiful natural scenery I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a peaceful night sleep and ability to experience a real neighborhood experience

Lovely peaceful stay in Paris

We loved this property and immediately felt comfortable. In this lively area of Paris, this house was an area of coolness and calm. We loved being surrounded by all the greenery in the courtyard and quite enjoyed watering everything regularly as it was hot and dry whilst we were there. When we booked this in the winter, we didn’t notice that the bedrooms had air con so it was a real pleasure to discover this. The house does stay quite cool because of it’s location but the air con was very helpful during the hotter nights.. The house is very comfortable with nice firm beds and lovely bed linen. The kitchen is well-stocked and there are many amenities close by even in August when many places are shut. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

spacious and relaxing retreat

My family has traveled to Paris numerous times, always opting to stay close to the center and major "attractions". This trip, however, we were wanting a different experience - one where we could be more a part of the daily life. We are an active family so we do not mind walking a distance, however, it was only a short walk to major metro stops, the pleasant Canal St. Martin, and even the bustling Republique. The feature we loved and enjoyed most about this property was the seclusion from the "hustle and bustle" (and noise) of Paris. Once inside the courtyard (there are four residences that share a private entrance), we could relax and unwind. Benoit's plant-filled courtyard offers a most pleasant area to have morning coffee and an evening glass of wine. The home is fully equipped with all that one would need, including plenty of towels. The beds were comfortable, the shower water pressure was amazing, no issues with wifi, and the washer/dryer was put to good use. The neighborhood felt safe and all conveniences are nearby (markets, boulangerie, pharmacy, etc). We happened to be there during a heatwave and were concerned about the AC however, the downstairs (no AC) stayed cool and the upstairs bedrooms (with AC) were perfect. We had to be mindful of the staircase (with no railing) and small stairs into the bedroom and bathroom. For Paris, this property was quite modern and spacious. Above all, Benoit was welcoming and responsive to any questions during our stay.

French Farmhouse Vibe

If you're looking for a combination of a French farmhouse with an industrial vibe in Paris, look no further! Benoit's property ticks all of the boxes...it's a comfortable and nicely laid out (just watch your step going and down his staircase); has a fully equipped kitchen and a smart little outdoor patio area to enjoy a glass of champagne after a long day exploring Paris. Benoit was there to great us upon our arrival so checkin was seamless! He's very responsive if you have a question. Nice property all around! Highly recommend!

Clean, Comfortable and Convenient

The apartment is clean and comfortable and has everything you need. There is space to cook and space to eat inside or out. The apartment is also located a few blocks from one of the hippest areas of Paris. Many fun shops, brasseries and restaurants are on both sides of Canal St. Martin so there are many choices if you want to go out nearby. Yann Couvreur, one of the best bakeries was 5 minutes away. The Metro is convenient for getting to other parts of the city,

Benoit’s house is beautiful and spacious. Tucked away from street, one has the feeling of being in the country while enjoying the beautiful patio, yet you’re quite near transportation to all that Paris has to offer. Have fun exploring the vibrant, interesting neighborhood. Rest assured that all will go smoothly as all arrangements and communication with Benoit are superior.

A wonderful place for a family stay

Our family (parents, two adult daughters) greatly appreciated our stay in Benoit's apartment. We have been to Paris many times, but this was the most spacious, comfortable short-term rental we have had. The upstairs bedrooms are quiet, large and comfortable, while the downstairs felt really big -- large enough for a family to spread out and to relax. The cooking facilities are first-rate, kitchen well equipped, dining room table large enough for a pleasant meal for eight. Nearby shops are good, excellent Saturday market two blocks away, some of the best bakeries in Paris within a ten minute radius. (We did not try the nearby bistros because we have vegetarians in the family and like to cook). We enjoyed discovering this corner of the tenth arrondisement, including the canal. (The area just on the other side of the canal struck us as extremely hip). If there is no strike, you can get to the Left Bank in 20 minutes by direct bus (to the Pantheon) or metro (direct line to Concorde). The heart of the Marais is a 30 minute walk away. Benoit was an excellent host. We did not meet him -- he was away on vacation-- but he was immediately responsible to every question that arose. All arrangements for arrival and departure worked like clockwork. Apartment was extremely clean upon arrival, with a good supply of essentials -- we did not have to run out to the nearby grocery store the first night, as is often the case. The apartment is secure, reached through two courtyards, one by code, the other by key. Lighting is excellent, and there are two desks upstairs -- if you have some work to accomplish here, you can. Wifi was excellent.. My only suggestion, as already noted by others, would be to put a handrail on the staircase to the bedrooms. This would not be the ideal place for people with mobility issues; otherwise it is perfect!

A wonderful and spacious retreat!

The house is a gem: it's clean, spacious, within easy walking distance of several metro stations, and with a supermarket two doors away. My whole family had a most enjoyable and restful time in Benoit's residence. Everything went very smoothly: from the initial confirmation, to the detailed followup, to the thoughtful reminder a few days before our trip, and most importantly--the gracious welcome and thorough explanations by Benoit who greeted us in person. All the descriptions are accurate, the wi-fi is great, the washer and dryer is a great benefit, and everything is there for a memorable stay and a retreat from the bustle of Paris. Yet the house has easy access to everything that Paris has to offer. Thank you so much Benoit for helping make our trip to Paris unforgettably wonderful!
