Gillian's place is really exceptional and he's a wonderful host. The location of the apartment (8 minutes walk to the Pompidou Centre and 15 minutes or so to the Louvre) is second to none and the area is vibrant and stylish. The flat is extremely comfortable and much more spacious than we expected - as 4 travellers we never felt cramped. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend Gillian and his apartment.
