I’ve rented apartments in Paris a couple of times a year with great results. Never used Airbnb, so I can’t comment on it. Have also rented in places like Venice, but never in Spain. In Madrid, Seville a year ago in hotels. Doing Venice and Paris this April.

You mention being with another family, implying 4+ people in your group. I have not needed a large apt, but I see them on the web sites. I have had good results with Paris Perfect and with Guest Apartment Services.

Have a great trip.

BTW air conditioning is now important even in Paris. Summers are getting much hotter.
