Christine made our stay in Paris absolutely perfect! She was there to show us around her apartment and give us directions to getting to all of the places that we wanted to see. I am very picky when it comes to cleanliness and normally only stay in 4 or 5 star hotels to ensure that the accommodations are cleaned to my standard. However, I took a chance with this reservation and couldn't have been more pleased! Christine's apartment was centrally located, so we were able to easily walk to so many spots which maximized our time in Paris. If we ever go back to Paris, I will definitely contact Christine.
As we have 3 children, we generally have to get 2 separate hotel rooms which can be quite expensive. Then, when we come back from our day sightseeing, we go to separate rooms. By staying at Christine's apartment, we were able to spend great quality time with our kids (20, 19, & 12) yet still had enough separate bedrooms.
