I stayed at Claudia's place for one month for my job and it was the perfect flat for someone working during the week. The apartment is quiet and it is easy to hear the neighbors. Because of this, you have to be conscientious of how loud you are. It was not a problem because I was gone during the week and went exploring at the many nearby museums, shops and restaurants, so I was not at the flat very much. The detail Claudia has taken to decorate the flat was wonderful. I felt that I had a true Parisian experience because of how beautifully detailed the decor is. To get to the apartment, you have to pass through three locked doors and as someone who was traveling alone, this was my favorite part of staying here because I felt very safe. The location of the flat is central and it was a short walk to see the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and the Arc de Triomphe. The flat was equipped with everything I needed for a long-term stay including cleaning supplies, a vacuum cleaner, an iron, plenty of closet storage and a full kitchen. As a host, Claudia was responsive, communicative and very pleasant. She was extremely patient and helpful when I accidentally locked the keys in the apartment. Towards the end of the stay, the apartment started to feel like home and I was sad to leave it behind. I will be in touch with Claudia in the future when I return to Paris!
