Luxury 2 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Apartment - Louvre
Pros:
1) Location, with the exception of a karaoke club next door. If you have the windows open, you will hear a lot of noise from the club members mingling in the street below until approximately 2:00am.
2) Keyless entry, no keys to mess with
3) Washing machine that also works as a dryer
4) Marie is pleasant & responsive
Cons:
1) No place to unpack clothing other than a few hangers & hooks. No dressers or closets.
2) Sofas are stained and dirty as is the living room area rug.
3) There was a mouse in the apt that left droppings & urine in my luggage. Droppings next to the headboard in the smaller bedroom. Note: this bedroom is quite small.
4) There is no ventilation in the smaller bedroom. There is a small fan provided. We left the living room window open & we had to leave our bedroom door open with the fan positioned in the doorway of the bedroom to get air moving. It was hot when we visited. If you want your privacy from other guests you are sharing the unit with, this won't work.
5) Not a "luxury" property in my opinion. Over-priced. Stairs are dark, old & worn. Lift has seen better days. The lift provides space enough for one person & one bag.
6) While Marie is pleasant & responsive, I didn't find her empathic or willing to work with us on an agreeable resolution to problems. She asked us not to use the bathroom located in the smaller bedroom due to a leak below the unit we were staying in. When I inquired about a refund for the inconvenience, she then said we could use the bathroom sparingly.
7) The sinks in the bathrooms are aggravating. The sink in the toilet closet & in the smaller bedroom are so small, water splashes out all over the floor. The sink in the larger bath off of the living space has a faucet that was not installed correctly & the water won't stay running. The faucet hits the wall & shuts off the flowing water unless you keep on hand on it.
