Alexandra is a great host. She provided many helpful local tips that made our trip to Paris that much more fun. Her flat is located in a great neighborhood with quick access to parks, a grocery store, restaurants, cafes, Metro, bike rentals and many other amenities. I felt like I got a glimpse into Parisian life. It is amazing:). Honestly though, if you are traveling to Paris from America for the first time- brace up. Spaces here are much cozier than you’d expect.
