Perfect in every way! The location across the Luxembourg Gardens was close to many bus lines, RER, and metro making getting around Paris a breeze (If staying a week get the Navigo Decouverte card). Cafes downstairs are all nice and very convenient. I stayed with my 13 year-old son and 10 year-old daughter for our final week in Europe after traveling with husband and his family the weeks prior (everyone else went back to USA for work or to Tours, France). My son was thrilled to have his own private loft and my daughter was happy sharing the lovely master suite with me. The home is decorated with beautiful artwork and collections and has large moldings on the ceilings. The bath area is huge including a large bathtub which we enjoyed nightly (There is a Lush bath store within walking distance, pick up some bath supplies at the back of the store). Fully equipped kitchen. Wonderful french doors let in light in every room. The icing on the cake was watching the Eiffel Tower light up and sparkle each night on the hour from the balcony, which the children really looked forward to! Many thanks to Gilbert for being so accommodating, we had to leave my in-laws apartment in the 1st arrondissment by 10 am and Gilbert was able to let us check-in early. I hope to return someday with my husband because really, having him stay there with us would have been the only thing that could have made this stay any better than it was!
