For my first trip to Europe, I decided to stay in Paris at Claire-Lise’s flat. The flat was about a one hour drive from ORLY airport (including traffic). Upon my arrival, I used the building code Claire-Lise provided to access the entry. The building is very secure with four locked doors between the main entrance and the flat itself. I had trouble figuring out how to buzz Clare-Lise from the building, but she was quick to respond through AirBNB, let me in and took me on a grand tour of the building and flat, while also showing me how to gain access through each door. Clare-Lise was incredibly kind and witty. She made me feel very comfortable during my first solo trip to Europe from America. The flat itself was very clean and the bed was so comfortable. You could not tell that the flat was an attachment of Claire-Lise’s home as it had its own separate entryway and there wasn’t any noise that travelled. It was a wonderful stay and I would stay here again in the future.
