We have stayed in several AirBnB’s in Paris, and unfortunately this rental did not completely meet our expectations, which pains me to leave this review.
What we appreciated the most was the timely communication and the location of the rental.
We were disappointed in the “tiredness” and cleanliness of the rental, and the accommodations within the rental.
If you are of shorter stature, I don’t think this rental would be for you. I am 5’7 and when viewing myself in the bathroom mirror, it is from the top of my shoulders up. I couldn’t even reach the only electrical outlet in the bathroom which was located on the top of the mirror. When sitting on the toilet, only my tippy toes touched the floor.
Also, the mirrored cabinet above the bathroom sink made it impossible to wash my face without my head pressed up against it thereby getting water all over.
The bath and bed linens were quite old and ratty, and a proper mattress pad is needed on the bed. We were provided with only 2 bath and 1 hand towel for our stay. Don’t forget to boost for the hot water, or ladies you won’t have enough time to wash your hair, let alone shave your legs.
The shower needs a good scrubbing, and the molding coming off the wall and the gaping hole in the wall by the toilet needs repairing. The burned out light in bathroom also needs replacing.
The scaling inside the teapot needs to be cleaned, perhaps a note to use bottled water is needed for future use.
The table top is also quite high, so again for those who are short statured may find that uncomfortable.
There is only a wall heater, which we really didn’t need to use, so not sure how well that will work in the colder months.
The wall not pictured is windows, that faces to a ground level courtyard, but the blinds remained closed for obvious privacy reasons.
The metro is close about a block away.
Outside the rental door on the opposite wall there is a round light switch, we didn’t locate this until days into our stay, which helps having some light at night when trying to unlock the door.
Around the corner is a small convenience store, makes getting some essentials easy.
If your main priority is communication, location, and ground floor, this place is for you. However, for us, next time we will be staying elsewhere.
