I have no idea where to begin. From meeting Christine at the door, to the time she took to show us her home and offer extras (like extra towels, coffee pods, a tea maker, toys for the toddler traveling with us), to her incredibly hospitable attitude....she is above and beyond any airbnb experience we had thus far. Her home is immaculate and she invites you to truly experience it as your own. She came to help us with the television and helped us via txt messaging with a WIFI issue we were experiencing. She did not treat us like we were bothering her at all. She provided a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers on the dining room table along with travel maps, metro station information and things to do in Paris books. Her apartment was so clean and well decorated, but yet still welcoming. We were traveling with a toddler and her response was to provide him toys from her stash she has for her grandchildren, along with children's movies for him to watch as he wound down in the evening. Her place is close to delicious restaurants and bakery's and right across the street from the Monoprix for groceries. She is steps away from the metro station and within walking distance to so many attractions to include the Louvre, the Musee d'Orsay, the Tuileries, Notre Dame....the list goes on and on. We loved her apartment so much that we looked forward to resting there in the evenings or enjoying coffee in the mornings when our activities were over. There is not enough praise that I can give her location, her cleanliness, her design and Christine herself! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
