Airbnb review
Pros
- incredible location, a 2 minute walk from the train station attached to a mall. Walking distance to many museums such as the louvre and centre pompidou. Plenty of great restaurants on the block.
- The airbnb itself is beautiful and great size for two people. Value is great for how much you are paying
Cons
- check in process required you to meet with someone from the host company that will check you in. This caused a lot of back and forth between the airbnb “host” and the person meeting you to check in. There also was a lack of communication between these two parties, so they were sending us back and forth for answers. We were worried that we might be cancelled on but everything was totally fine in the end. We also were hoping to check in at 2pm listed in the posting, but their team couldn’t actually meet us until 3pm.
- I’m not sure if someone lives here regularly, but half the closet space was taken up by someone else’s clothes.
- The hair dryer was broken, and although they offered to send us one, there was a lot of chasing around to coordinate the drop off, so we decided to just live without it.
- they didn’t provide any details on where to throw out trash or boxes we needed to get rid of from our shopping
Would I recommend this airbnb to anyone in the future? Yes and no. If you are willing to take the risk of them potentially cancelling and a stressful check in experience the airbnb’s location and design make up for it. Would I personally risk it again? No.
