This was the first time I had ever used AirB&B. Over the years I had been to Paris on business and as a tourist. In the past I had always stayed in hotels. This time was purely for the Holidays. I searched the Paris listings for hours on end. Then one day Daniela's listing popped up. It must have been beginners luck that I found such a lovely apartment. Daniela graciously excepted my application. I always wanted to spend time in Paris as a Parisian. This was the perfect location. Daniela's flat is beautiful and artistic. It is located on a pedestrian street in the bustling heart of the Le Marais. Just around the corner from Centre Georges Pompidou. From here you can easily walk to Le Louve or over to IIe Saint-Louis. If you want to stay in and just relax, you can enjoy Daniela's amazing music collection. The two story bay windows let in plenty of light. Enjoy a cup of coffee because the kitchen is equipped with a Nespresso machine and everything to cook with as well. Upon our arrival we found the fridge stocked with goodies and even a bottle of wine to greet us. My visit here was from December 28/January 4th. My girlfriend and I spent the New Year celebrations here. The city was beautifully decorated with lights everywhere. The many times I had been in Paris, but the first time for The Christmas/ New Years season. It was truly magical. The evening at the Buddha Bar on New Year's Eve was epic. The security around the city was amazing. I never felt unsafe. Not once. During our visit Daniela helped us countless times with everything you could imagine. She speaks and writes perfect English. She was our own personal Concierge!!!! She made many suggestions on what and where we could go on a daily basis. If you need a manicure she has the perfect spot. She helped follow up on our New Year's booking and even made sure I had the correct Airport Terminal upon my departure. Mind you I don't speak but about two words in French. She answered our countless questions was much patience and tried to help anyway possible as things popped up throughout the week. Lastly my most recent trip to Paris was beyond expectation and truly memorable. If you are lucky enough to stay in Danela's apartment, you will have a fabulous visit. Merci encore, du fond du coeur, et au revoir!! God Bless the people of France.
