We were greeted by a friendly bnbsitter who explained the apartment, which was as expected. It is small but comfortable and there's so much to do in Paris that we didn't spend much time at home anyway. There is a small lift that's great for taking bags up to the apartment.
The area is great - close to a couple of different metro lines so you can get anywhere in Paris, and lots of bars, restaurants and boulangeries.
We did have an issue with the shower drain filling very quickly so hopefully that is addressed.
