Our host met us upon arrival to provide an overview of the accommodations and answer any questions that we had. The accommodations were as described, very clean, and the fully equipped kitchenette was appreciated. The balcony was a great place to unwind after a long day of sightseeing in Paris. While the noise outside the bars nearby (the accommodation is above a bar) was at times excessive, it wasn't unbearable. Overall we found our stay quite enjoyable. Probably not the best accommodation if you are a light sleeper or early-to-bed.
