Never got to meet carol and I communicated directly with Chris whom she provided contact information for. Would have liked for Chris to respond more quickly to my messages. The apartment itself was very nice. Definitely small. Better for two max three people. We were four and we were definitely very cramped. The check in process was good. The apartment was also very clean which I appreciated. The neighborhood was so cute! I did not like that they only provided one roll of toilet paper. I've used airbnb for 8 apartments in various cities and I had never come across that. I messaged Chris and he explained that there was a market up the street that we can use to buy more toilet paper if we needed, so heads up to anyone else looking at this apartment BYOTPAT (Bring Your Own Toilet Paper And Towels). Yes, towels as well. Again we were four people and we were only provided with two bath towels. I honestly did not ask Chris about more towels as I was already a little upset about the TP thing. Anyway, the location itself was great. Very close to a station which you need in Paris. The apartment is located on the top floor of the apartment, so bringing the luggage up was a challenge. I think that's pretty typical with the older buildings in Paris though, so just be prepared. Another interesting thing about the apartment is that it seemed to be slanted. You can tell that the building is not straight especially when you're going up the stairs, but it threw me off to feel that the apartment was not level as well. Not fun when you're walking to the bathroom early in the morning still half asleep.
