I arrived in Paris with my mom on Jan 22, 15 early morning around 8am. The host had his neighbour come down to the apartment with the key. The wait was possibly around 10 - 15mins but luckily we were not waiting out in the cold. The location of the apartment was very good - it's great for taking the metro as the metro Les Halles is just a stone's throw away. The apartment is small but cozy. Thank goodness it has got an elevator as it's up on the 6th floor. The apartment can sleep up to 4 people but due to the smallness of the apartment I reckon up to 3 people would be max. Overall the comfort of the apartment is very good - coffee and milk is provided for and all the basic amenities were all provided. I would definitely come back here to stay if I were to be in paris again.
