The host was not there. However, her stepfathter was. He was kind and patient to wait for me to pick up the keys even though my flight had been delayed for 2 hours prior to arriving. The pictures overestimate how this flat actually look. It looks more clean and neat in the photos. The people that live here actually do instead of a normal renter's airbnb. You could see there old frozen foods and fridge food as well. There is not much lighting in this flat. I had maybe a 12" tall desk lamp for the master bedroom. Location seemed okay for my first time visiting Paris. Paris was fantastic city though, so it made up for it.
