I’d argue that Paris put on the best show since London 2012. Great athletes, incredible venues, and the people of Paris were supportive of the Olympics. I’d argue it is really helped rebound the image of the Olympics. Couple of hiccups with the Opening Ceremony and the Seine controversy but really smooth job by Paris.
I think Paris fared quite well.
The logistical nightmare that is the Olympic Games, came off without too many issues.
Security was quiet, so things seemed to be handled quite well.
The venues seemed really nice. The course for the bike races and marathons were beautiful, as was the mountain bike course.
That said, you hope the host city didn’t lose too much money in the costs that are incurred by hosting.
