My boyfriend and I spent 6 days in Paris and absolutely loved our stay in Gilles' apartment! The apartment itself was quiet, comfortable, clean and very well equipped with everything we needed-dishes, towels, a clothes iron and more. We loved being able to cook breakfast in the kitchenette and were treated to a lovely view of Paris outside the large windows. As for location, there are plenty of shops in the vicinity, including a market just downstairs from the apartment, and the metro is only a couple of blocks away. Gilles was so kind and stopped by a few days in to our stay just to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying our visit. Next time we come to Paris we will definitely stay here again!
