If I could give him 10 stars out of five, I would certainly do that! Joseph is literally the best host I’ve ever met in my five year experience with Airbnb.
1. Joseph is absolutely thoughtful for us. We arrived in Paris on July 14th, the Bastille Day. All roads were closed near his apartment for parades and fireworks. Unfortunately none of us could speak French, so he booked us a English-speaking driver to pick up us from the airport. Afterwards, he asked if the driver served us well. All these gestures are warm and considerate and we really appreciate these.
2. Upon our arrival, he zestfully welcomed us. He was particularly patient for my grandparents’ poor hearing. Him being here was a great enjoyment for all of us. He also gave us a lot of insightful information about the tourist destinations nearby which was surely helpful.
3. His place is centric. 2 minutes walk to the iconic Rue Saint-Honore; less than 10 minutes to Champ-Élysées.
4. My favourite part about his flat is that the decorations are so artistic. He put in a lot of effort in the selection of art pieces on his wall. The furniture are also old French style which makes you feel like living which a French nobleman (and he surely is). If you only have one day in Paris, I would recommend you to stay in his place because you can enjoy the Parisan lifestyle without going out from his flat.
A big “4thank you” from my family. Thanks to Joseph for making Paris such a wonderful memory for us💕
