Absolutely Wonderful!
Sometimes life throws you a curve and it ends up better than you planned. Our original host (who is no longer on Airbnb) canceled less than ten days before our departure for Paris. To say the very least this created a great deal of anxiety. How to find a place to stay for eight nights in such a short time and at such a late date was quite vexing, to say the very least.
Well, we found a place, and in my opinion, it was the best thing that could have happened. It was the best rental we have ever experienced. And we have used Airbnb and others for many years. The neighborhood was excellent with many great places to eat. And the metro, bus, and supermarkets were within two blocks of the apartment.
Marc and Pauline were the penultimate hosts. And the apartment far exceeded our expectations. The apartment was huge -, especially by Paris standards. The place was immaculate, the kitchen superb and we had a wonderful time in my favorite city Paris- thanks to our hosts. Marc was very attentive to our questions and responded quickly. I only wish my French was half as good as his English!
Two nights before we left Paris for our next destination Milan, Marc and Pauline joined us in the apartment for conversation and food. They brought champagne, an extraordinary bottle of wine, cheeses, several types of french bread, and pate. We had such a great time talking that we lost track of time and they left all most at midnight! And we hated to see them go. It was a truly memorable night.
We are very discerning guests and I highly recommend the hosts and the apartment. I only hope it is available the next time we visit Paris!
