Gabrielle is a delightful person and a fantastic host. Nothing was too much trouble and she made sure I had everything I needed. Gabrielle introduced me to her neighbours/friends, which made me feel like I was staying in a community and not just some rented apartment. The apartment is on the ground floor (very rare to find in Paris!), with a small spiral staircase to access the downstairs bedroom. Although the bedroom is small, there is a place to put your clothes, and the bed is a double and very comfortable. The living space has a dining table and small couch. The bathroom is an ok size (particularly for Paris) and the shower pressure is excellent. I am very tall and I did not feel cramped in the bathroom or in the living space. The apartment is well equipped with cooking essentials and a very good washer, dryer, dishwasher and full oven. Both windows have a roller door/cover, and as a solo traveller; this made the apartment feel very secure. The location is brilliant to explore Paris from, as it is walking distance to Montmartre, Moulin Rouge and Opera (20 mins), and the metro and many bus options are only steps away from your front door. There is a super market next door and a variety of bakeries and restaurants close by. I arrived a stranger in Paris but I felt like I was welcomed as a friend. Thank you Gabrielle for hosting me in your home and making my stay so enjoyable. I will see you again soon!
