Gilian's rental apartment was a dream come true! I have stayed in Paris for a couple dozen times over the years and this airbnb is the BEST I have ever lived. We arrived the day France changed its covid rules and we were very stressed to get tested less than 24 hours before and finding appointments. Gilian kept in contact with me and reassured me. My original group of 8 cancelled the day before the trip and we were down to 4 and we finally arrived in his apartment exhausted. It was amazing: It was clean (my toddler daughter had daily croissants and when she missed her plate, we left her finish her croissant off the floor, that was how clean it was, very well decorated, the sheets were so comfortable, the bathrooms immaculate, the windows sealed off all the outside noise, the appliances were all very new, and the magical Senseo coffee machine had my father in law drink at least 10 cups of espressos before noon! We actually bought the same one for him to have for Xmas as it was that amazing. As a family we decided to go to Lyon for a day and one night to see the Light Festival, after a full day in Lyon we were about to check in to our hotel for the night and we all looked at each other, made a U-turn, got on the first TGV back the same day to Paris so that we can stay at Gilian's Parisian airbnb! We chose not to see the Light Festival!!! This was the cleanest, most functional, and beautiful apartment we have stayed on any Airbnb and we often stay at luxury villas in Malibu and Hawaii. No hesitation! I will be back. 5 stars on EVERY Category!
