My family and I stayed at Sil's place for over 5 weeks this past Summer (we have three kids, 6,4 and 1). I would mirror all the positive things others have shared as well as add a few of my own. I tend to be quite a researcher when it comes to things and I spent at least 10 hours looking at different apartments before deciding on Sil's. I went through all of Airbnb, all the other Paris Rental sites, even the rental sites for Parisian locals. We are so happy we chose Sil's apartment for our stay. First of all the location is really wonderful. With views of the Eiffel tower out the window, you're positioned right in the middle of the 7th arrondissement which is perfect for families. Wonderful bakeries and restaurants are all in walking distance and it's well positioned for many ideal public transportation spots to get around the city. The apartment itself is spacious and cozy and filled with many wonderful touches and art. It's perfect for families. I have never encountered a host as warm caring and responsive as Sil. She went above and beyond to make sure me and my family had a wonderful experience in Paris. We would rent this apartment again in a heartbeat.
