What a delightful experience! I was welcomed warmly by my French host Florence (who also spoke perfect English), who clearly explained everything I needed to know about room, shower, WiFi, etc. The room private room was neat and ordered, and from the window I was able to lean out and SEE the Eiffel Tower. After a great day of exploring, I met Olivier in the evening. He's a professor turned guide who was amazingly generous with his knowledge of Paris and especially its museums. If you are lucky, you might even persuade him to be your guide on a Paris adventure! They generously let me practice my French with them, and also served a great complimentary traditional French breakfast each morning. The morning of my departure, Olivier passed me in the hall, saying "I'll be right back I'm just going to get a fresh baguette for your breakfast." More than a guest, my hosts made me feel like a friend from across the pond. If you are looking not only for a bed to rest your head, but the chance to interact and engage with an interesting host family, I encourage you to stay here. I will return for sure.
