Val was a great host - we had excellent communication before and during my stay. She even texted me a list of fun walks to take around Paris, and left me some Easter chocolate. The flat was just beautiful - it looked exactly like the photos, very French and chic and light and airy. The shower was great, the bed comfy. I didn't cook but the fridge was large and clean. I was on my own and had plenty of room and it would have been fine to share with a friend or partner, too. The neighborhood was convenient - the metro was 1 min away, a grocery store 5 seconds, and tons of bars and restaurants. I walked to Notre Dame and it didn't take long at all. The Jardin des Plantes is beautiful and only 10 minutes walk away.

I will stay here next time I'm in Paris!
