Lydie really is a super host. She was extremely easy to communicate with and very thoughtful and kind about everything. The apartment is in a really great location, very convenient for doing groceries or popping to a nice bar or restaurant. The area of Gambetta is really fun, good for young couples, singles or even older travelers. It's now my favourite neighborhood in Paris. Lydie is a pro so she leaves you your own space but is happy to chat if you feel like some company, she has had a fascinating life and is lovely to talk to.
