Sofia and I had a hard time communicating. I tried through the Airbnb website, her email, phoning and texting. I had to reply to every inquiry 2 or 3 times before and during my stay. Because our itinerary did not fit the schedule in the contract, I had to pay an extra 35 euros because of a late arrival and she asked us to leave a day early because our plane was too early for her scheduled check out times. All the times are in her contract. My bad, this was my first try at an Airbnb.
In the end my co-travelers were scared off. They found a hotel to stay at instead, leaving me to stay alone in the apartment. They tried to find a 3 person room but there was a bicycle race in Paris & there were very few vacancies.
The apartment is way back off the street and is therefore quiet. I felt as safe as an older woman alone can feel in an unknown city. It is rather sterile feeling, not warm or welcoming. It is clean. The handheld shower head goes hot and cold.
