It was warm in Paris, but on the 8th floor there were nice breezes to keep it cool in the apartment, plus there were a few fans in the apartment (no A/C, but that is pretty typical). One side overlooked a busy street, but the other overlooks a pleasant courtyard, pretty quiet. It is part of a large condo complex, with a locked security gate, so felt pretty safe. Close to groceries, about 10 minute walk to the metro. Very clean. Kitchen is pretty small, but we managed. No garbage bins in the kitchen, took a little sleuthing to figure out we dispose of it down a small chute in the wall. Description says two bathrooms, but it's really two showers, there is only one toilet, which is separate. Host responded quickly to any questions or needs, though we never met her in person (her dad let us in).
