Gilbert is an incredibly nice and more so extraordinary person with a lifetime experience. His apartment is more like a museum. I was walking around with my eyes wide open. He has lots of wonderful art pieces. The room is big , with a fireplace and it ha a terrace. The location is great as well. It's very close to a bus station and about 5 - 7 min away from subway. Gilbert was nice to let me check in earlier since the previous guests left earlier as well; he made me delicious coffee and simply made me feel like at home.
If I ever get a chance to go back to Paris I will do my utmost to have Gilbert as my host again.
