Barbara's place is well located, and easy to walk in any direction around Paris and to necessities like the grocery store. I stayed here for 4 nights with my husband and baby. We felt completely safe the entire time and had no issues with the neighbourhood. Even the 3 flights of stairs were not a problem even with our baby. I feel that many minor issues contributed to an overall disappointing stay. The 3rd party hosting agency met us on time, but when we went in with her to go up to the apartment she disappeared up the flights of stairs leaving us to sort out going up with our baby, stroller, and luggage (and we packed extremely light). I expected at least "Can I help you with anything" considering we were travelling with a small baby. We were informed that the previous guest had broken a mirror, and that someone would be coming into the apartment between 11-6 on the Friday during our stay. Though inconvenient with our baby's nap schedule, we worked around it only to find out no one ever came. The host never communicated that no one would be coming. We discovered many small broken mirror fragments along the floor during our stay which is a hazard. When we got to the apartment, the couch had an awkward covering on it that was filled with sparkle confetti which I imagine was from the last guest. There were labels all over the apartment reading "private" in every room. I have never seen anything like it in all my airbnb stays. To be honest, it does not make you feel welcome but instead like you might be intruding on someone's private space. The host had previously messaged me about not using linens in the closet as there was no transportation on a Sunday. This lead me to believe taxis could not come to our apartment to get to the airport so I double checked with the host if this was the case. We never heard back from Barbara on this point. So to sum it up, I think if only one of these issues had happened I could certainly overlook it. But many little things just added up to an unsatisfactory stay. Personally, I would not stay here again.
