Alex is an amazing host. This is what airbnb was made for--the stylish Parisian apartment that you could never replicate in a hotel, all the local tips and helpfulness from the host (Alex made reservations for us for a taxi and a restaurant, since our French is nonexistent), and especially just spending some time in the evenings chatting with Alex and hearing about life in this great city. We loved our stay and would 100% recommend a stay in her apartment.
