What an amazing week! We booked Lily's apartment for 5 nights and couldn't have been happier. The place is spacious, nestled in an excellent part of the city - the fifth arrondissement, near the Metro, cafes, bars, and sightseeing - and is beyond gorgeous. I don't know what I expected when we walked in the front door, but surely not this apartment. It's such a gem, and Lily is a wonderful host. She responded quickly to all of my questions and messages, met us that first day to show us around and give us the keys, and answered any other questions I had for her throughout the remainder of our stay. Our group of three adults and two kids, ages 10 and 11, had more than enough room to relax and unwind after a long day roaming the city, enjoyed many of the neighborhood's excellent restaurants, creperies, ice cream shops, and coffee houses (do not let a morning go by without some caffeine from Dose - they even have a street side take-away window), and especially liked the apartment's close relation to both the Seine (great path for a morning run) and the Place Monge stop on the Metro. All in all, I cannot recommend Lily and her lovely apartment more... I'm already plotting my next excuse to return.
