Where do I start with this place? Gilles’ home is absolutely beautiful. It may technically be a studio, but the “loft” is closer to a second floor in size and scale. Gilles told us how the building used to be a clothing factory, but you’d never guess. The apartment is spacious, warm and unique. Honestly, it might be the best AirBnb I’ve ever stayed at. Gilles was also an above-and-beyond host, initially happy to let us drop our bags off early in the morning and then ultimately letting us just check in. The apartment is on a little bit of a hill, but only a 5-10 walk to the city center, and the road it’s on also offers views of the stunning Notre Dame church on the hill (a must-see). I highly recommend it!
