Vanessa’s space overall was well-decorated and fairly equipped to accommodate a group of 4. To be candid, I envisioned this apartment to be a bit more spacious based on the pictures but quickly leveled my expectations upon arriving.
The private terrace space was an awesome touch however weren’t able to fully utilize it during our stay since Paris was pretty wet & rainy then. The communications were passed onto Vanessa’s aunt (Veronik) who did her absolute best to accommodate us despite some complications during the check-in process and issues during our stay. Despite these hurdles we both faced, it was Veronik’s hospitality and the apartment’s location that made up for our mediocre experience.
For future guests who are traveling with family/friends, I’d highly recommend for you to ask for the following to ensure your stay is smoother including:
1. How to enter/exit the vicinity (you’ll need a code combo, fob, and room key to enter & will need to know what button to press before exiting)
2. Additional towels as you’re only given one towel set (one to dry off from the shower & one small wash cloth). Be weary that bath mats aren’t provided.
3. The sliding door to the bathroom has ~inch crack that your friends/family could accidentally peek in if you’re using the toilet - ask for some method of covering this so you have full privacy.
4. Duration of hot water for showers.
5. When your room will be ready prior to check-in.
