I stayed at Gilbert's home on a girls' trip with my mom. The apartment and Gilbert, our host, were both absolute perfection.

The apartment is gorgeous, with eclectic and well-curated decor. The space is also huge, particularly by Parisian standards. The main living area is light-filled and cozy, the bathroom and kitchen are well-equipped, and the bedroom is restful, with a very comfortable bed. The large balcony overlooks the beautiful Jardin du Luxembourg and the Eiffel Tower views are the icing on the cake. The location is perfect for exploring all parts of Paris, and also very close to the Luxembourg RER B, which goes directly to the airport.

Gilbert is a perfect host. He was accessible at all times before arrival, and was even so kind as to make us an reservation at a neighborhood restaurant that did not take online reservations. Meeting Gilbert to gain access to the apartment was smooth and problem-free. He is warm and friendly, and kindly permitted us to check in early, following our overnight flight into Paris.

Merci beaucoup Gilbert; you made our visit so wonderful, and we cannot wait to return.
