This was my first experience of using Airbnb and what a good start. The flat was within a 10 minute walk to the Sacre Coer. It was clean and tidy and the fridge had some, very welcome, complimentary beer, wine and cocacola.
Veronica gave me extremely clear details of how to get to and enter the flat. I get ridiculously stress about such things, especially when travelling with my two young children, but this all ran very smoothly. The immediate area is not particularly attractive but having Gare Du Nord within walking distance makes travel very easy.
We went to Paris on a weekend when the weather decided to rehearse the apocalypse. The rain was pounding and unrelenting. Our little flat was a welcome haven.
