Although we did not meet them, we found that the Gerschels were wonderful, thoughtful and generous hosts. Their apartment was beautiful and quirky and they provided us with lots of local information on restaurants, bakeries and things to do. They even went as far as to arrange car parking for us and to book a restaurant for us for a celebratory meal on a Sunday night, which is hard to do in Paris for a large group. We would be very happy to stay in their apartment again.
