This location is not, in my humble opinion, child friendly. If you're traveling with your family, strongly reconsider staying in this location. It is apparently a known location for prostitutes and we believe we saw an exchange of illegal substances. We were also greeted in the morning when we left the apartment by a police vehicle, and a line of men against a wall getting patted down. I know Paris is a large city, but we've been there before and this was just so incredibly different than the Paris we experienced the first time. The location was our biggest problem since we were traveling with our four year old daughter.
Unfortunately, it wasn't the only issue we ran into. The check in did not go smoothly despite following the directions sent. We still ended up waiting in the courtyard of the apartment for over a half hour. The apartment itself did appear clean, although a little more worn than the photos show. It's a humble little apartment and it's nice enough, honestly, except for the location and the cherry on top of our trip - the hairy bedding. When we got ready to collapse for the night, we found small dark hair all over the sheets and pillows. It was the last thing we wanted to deal with at that point and we just wanted to cancel the room. Airbnb took care of us and the situation, but the host didn't do much more than to offer us a refund of the cleaning fee and a change of sheets. We're still planning on using Airbnb in the future. I've heard so many good things, this just wasn't a good stay for our family.
