Hello Charles, your apartment particularly inspires us at HostnFly. Could you tell us more: why do you like it so much and why did you choose this neighborhood?
Paris is a magnificent city, and the northern neighborhoods are now where all of Paris gathers for countless activities day and night. Amid this lively atmosphere, you need a cozy haven with Parisian charm, in beautiful stone buildings emblematic of Haussmann architecture. A peaceful retreat with all of Paris within easy reach.
Do you have secret addresses to share with travelers coming to your apartment, as well as with HostnFly clients who don’t know your neighborhood?
The secret of the neighborhood is to take your time and not hesitate to explore many ephemeral spots. A very pleasant and multi-generational living space is the Marché de l’Olive which delights both food lovers with its indoor and outdoor market, and those who enjoy leisure, with terraces in pedestrian streets.

How did you hear about HostnFly and why did you choose us to manage your apartment?
A different company, more focused on central Paris neighborhoods (One Fine Stay), highly recommended HostnFly for your comprehensive concierge services (especially cleaning!). The contact was immediately friendly and very professional with exceptional responsiveness. Two weeks later, the first rental was underway!
Do you have advice for owners who entrust us with managing their apartment?
For me, having too many material possessions causes many complications. When I embarked on this journey, because I wanted to and to properly host guests, I took the opportunity to declutter and empty my closets. It feels great!!!! So, my apartment is totally warm but not overloaded with unnecessary things. Now, I can decide in two days whether to rent it out or not. A simple life exists, and it’s something you can build over time.
On which occasions do you entrust your apartment to HostnFly?
Like most people, I use business trips or vacations to manage my apartment. Living in Paris and owning property is unfortunately a heavy financial burden. I had little means to go on vacation. This rental is the solution to that problem. Renting out my property helps fund my vacations and, in addition, allows others to discover Paris—it’s pure happiness!

How would you describe HostnFly in 3 words?
Pacey (yes, I like that word, to me it means energetic, young, dynamic)
Thank you (because thanks to you, I can go on vacation without constantly checking my wallet)
Obvious (I couldn’t live differently and leave my apartment empty)
Travelers who have stayed in Charles’s apartment have been especially satisfied:
