I was unable to get a hold of the host once we arrived in Paris and at the apartment. We waited for several hours outside calling/email and texting the host and their contact with no success. After several hours had passed I called Air bnb and the reservation was cancelled leaving us stranded in Paris for hours during the night. This was after a 13 hour trip. With very little sleep, we spent the following day trying to find an apartment and missed out on our scheduled and purchased sight seeing tours. What should have been a memorable trip turned out to be a domino effect of unfortunate and costly attempts to normalize our short trip to Paris. Truly an unfortunate experience.
