My best friend and I just got back from our stay in Paris at this rental and to sum it up.. AMAZING!! The place is exactly as pictured, and in a very good location. Gilian was an excellent host and his place was the perfect retreat after a day of sightseeing. We loved the area and the unique character of this rental. There is plenty of cafe's and shops close by, along with several Metro stations so it's very easy to get around the city. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.. it was perfect!!! Thanks Gilian, couldn't have asked for anything better!!
