We had quick communication with the host and it was easy to find the place after she gave us pictures and written directions. 1 min walk from the porte d'ivry stop on the paris metro so we were able to get to the center of paris easily. The host spoke english, french, and chinese and was very friendly. The apartment was clean and it fit our group of seven but there was only one toilet and shower to share. Overall great experience and good value for the location.
