I went to a conference in Paris, and I did not book an hotel in advance. I tried this new kind of rental (new for me at least) and it worked incredible well. My host was a very kind lady who thought every detail for providing a pleasant stay. The flat is fantastic. Is very well located, with supermarkets and two metro stations at walking distance. It has a superb view, and is very well equipped. If someday I return to Paris I will not stay in other place but in Danièle flat!
