We stayed at Eva's apartments from 29 December to 02 January. It was a great experience. The apartment is located very close to pretty much anything you need. A large supermarket is directly across the street, a bakery about 50 meters up the road, a cafe directly across the street from the bakery and many restaurants and shops all within a 5 minute walk. Also the metro station is very close. I would say a 5 to 10 minute walk depending on how many shops you stop in along the way. We had rented a car and drove across Europe and was ending our trip in Paris and when I told Eva prior to my arrival we would have a car she suggested that I turn in the rental car early because a car is not needed in Paris. I am so glad she told me this because a car would have been very difficult to use in Paris and the train, bus and taxi systems are awesome in Paris and all you need. Not only did she save us the hours we would have wasted driving around looking for a parking spot at all the places we visited but also she saved me money for the early turn in. Now the apartment is so nice. Everything I expected from the photos and much more. It was pretty cold in Paris but the heaters in the building work great so that was nice to come home to an apartment that was nice and cozy warm after a day out in the cold. The view from the balcony was awesome. I loved the view of the Eiffel Tower as well as the old style Paris Roof tops. Check in was great. I showed up a few minutes early and Eva was right there. She showed us the apartment and explained everything in great detail to include the metro system which she even provided a map. Check out was just as great and I enjoyed the conversations I had with both Eva upon check in and throughout our stay and her husband upon check out. The next time I go back to Paris I will surely stay in Eva's apartment again if it is available and I recommend anyone going to Paris to stay there. Airbnb needs a super duper host category or Eva. Thanks so much for everything Eva.
