Laurent was such a wonderful host. We had some really ridiculous travel happen with getting stuck in Chicago for one extra night, thinking that we weren't going to make it to Paris at all, then getting stuck underground for hours on the metro and having to be evacuated out of the back while we didn't have data due to the international trip, and couldn't contact him. He stayed patient and kind and helpful when I know that had to be frustrating. He was really attentive to any messages with questions throughout the stay, and the place was as portrayed. Very clean and SUCH a great area with an easy pop to the metro. We even made friends with the owners of the new store beside the building, and on Sunday a frenchman came through the neighborhood playing his trumpet. I felt like I spent a week in the days of yester-years, and it could not have been more magical.
