Gilles was excellent. He was present at his home when we arrived, accommodating our uncertain time of arrival, and was flexible with our check-out time. He also took some time out to show us around the neighbourhood and kindly joined us for dinner. He's an excellent host, and responded whenever we got in touch with him.
The neighbourhood was lovely, quiet and safe. The view from the house was priceless. I should add that it is a bit of a hike up to the house, but that was something that Gilles discloses to all his potential guests. It helped keep us in shape ;)
