Vanessa truly is a superhost, and we had a fantastic time at her lovely and cozy apartment. Everything was simply yet beautifully decorated - the wine and coffee she provided were delicious, and the bakeries, shops and restaurants within walking distance were amazing (Emmanuel Martin & Artisan Boulangerie - best chocolate croissants & chicken sandwich I've ever had, and both within a minute's walk! If you love Italian cuisine and yummy pasta, Pasta del Nonno is right around the corner too). The Eiffel Tower was an easy 10 minute walk, there are plenty of markets and convenience stores for drinks and snacks, and the area was safe and quiet at night. Vanessa's place is perfect for two people - waking up to The Iron Lady and watching her sparkle every hour at night was the stuff of dreams!! The heating unit worked well on colder nights, and the kitchen was fully equipped with cute dishware. We were able to use Netflix on the TV and the wi-fi was flawless. Our only issue was the bed - we both woke up with a little back pain each morning, and the bed frame is very noisy and creaky. A new mattress and a bit of oil would help greatly. Vanessa is quick to respond, super helpful, very friendly and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended! This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime view and experience, don't miss out!!
