The apartment was all that the listing stated. We had a couple issues that were out of the host's control -- like the singing party people at 2 AM (they were having a really, really good time) and a dead bird outside the bedroom window. The partying only happened one night and the dead bird washed down when it rained. So everything resolved itself.
We loved having the toilet room separate from the shower room. Just be aware that the shower room was SMALL. Also there was no way to keep to water in the shower pan. The floor outside of the shower was wet after every shower, resulting in a soggy bath mat.
We were there in August and were fine without air conditioning. There was decent cross ventilation. And there were fans in the apartment to help move the air around.
The washer worked fine - we did several loads. There is a folding rack to dry the clothes, but it did take some time given the humidity level.
We were near two Metro stops, but neither was super close. I'd say it was a 10 minute walk to get to either. A couple times we were just too tired and took a cab home because we didn't want to walk from the Metro. It was very special to come up from one of the Metro stations and see the Eiffel Tower! Loved that!
Groceries, bakery and other shops were nearby. We especially liked the Casino grocery store in the walk-through shopping center just a 1/2 block away.
All in all it was a good place to stay. And would consider staying there again.
