Wonderful hosts and a superb flat with an excellent location.
We were picked up at CDG flying in from Mexico City as agreed. We were more than an hour late at the airport on arrival! Nonetheless, our driver was courteous and patient. Our 4 yr old got car sick on the way to rue Bonaparte and our 1 yr old needed a diaper change en route as well.. and through all this our driver was cool and understanding!
Even though we were very very late on a Sunday evening, Virginie and Eduardo, were there to receive and welcome us at the flat with great local chocolate and pastries and wine! Wow we were really blown away!
Our little ones were wonderfully entertained by the giant TV. And the grown ups could consult maps and things to do in St. Germain des Pres with ultrafast WiFi! All amenities, kitchenwise, bathroom, bedroom, in the living room were great just like being at home. The kids would even refer to the flat as 'their home'!
Well illuminated, well ventilated, practically sound proof streetwise and we never heard the neighbours, though they probably did hear us because our little ones are not exactly mmh.. quiet, shall I say.
The location is , pardon my English.. 'Thy St. Germain ye have dreamt of'! .. Cafe les Deux Magots, Cafe de Flore, Metro, Bus, l'eglise de St. Germain des Pres, an Armani store, Louis Vouitton store, Monoprix, Ralph Lauren store, etc. all within a stone's throw.
Very secure and safe day and night. We left a bag when we left and Virginie made sure we got it back. All in all, our first visit to Paris has been a grand experience and we sure are very thankful with our hosts! We will surely try and reserve with Virginie on our next trip back to Paris!
Kind Regards,
Hector & Nahelli
