While the host, Laurent, was extremely nice. This was not the place for me. I booked this specific Airbnb based on two factors. 1. It was right by the Catacombs and 2. It had air conditioning. Neither of these things were correct.
While not terribly far from the catacombs it was still an extra 15 min walk from each activity I had planned for my stay.
What upset me was the air conditioning. I have a condition called Hyperhydrosis which means my body does not regulate heat properly. I need air conditioning even when it is 50 degrees out. I am always sweating. It’s not fun. Upon my arrival I asked Laurent how the AC worked. He told me that it didn’t. That the person there previously used too much(?) and it now didn’t work. He turned it on and it turned on but within an hour it was blowing hot air. I slept with the terrace door wide open to be cool and it worked until about 3 am. The first morning I was looking for hotels to stay at and reading the rules for Airbnb but I didn’t think I would get a refund so I just sucked it up. I spent every morning telling myself to ask for a refund for the remaining nights to book a hotel but I didn’t want to waste the time doing it. If you need to be cool and comfortable to sleep this is not the place for you.
Additionally, a towel was provided for the shower but it looked kind of gross to me so I used one of my shirts as a towel instead.
The positives of the place is that it was near a lot of food and the train and bus were within a blocks walk.
Next time I will stay in a hotel. Lesson learned
