Valériane has been a very responsive host from the beginning. We had a little issue getting hold of the keys as she wasn't in Paris at that time and the man at the shop where she left them did not speak English and did not know that the keys had been left there. Luckily a story with an happy ending. As a frequent traveller and user of air B&B, I don't believe the listing is properly reflecting the information about the area in which the flat is located. Described as "lively", it's more like a place in which as a woman I would not want to walk alone especially in the evening. We actually witnessed drug dealing outside the windows of the flat that is at the ground floor of a building tacked away in a back alley. We were aware the area was close to Gare Du Nord Station but we could have never imagined that we would have felt so unsafe. On top of this, the apartment must have been a deposit or storage room and not converted properly, we spent 3 nights hardly sleeping because of how damp the flat is. The bedding itself was damp and did not dry over the 3 days making it impossible to sleep in that environment. I would not recommend. It may seem a good deal but it's not worth the hassle when you are on holidays and your time is precious.
