We had a slight safety issue and lack of communication from the host/hosting management company wasn’t helpful. — the shower when we used it had an electrical current to it & would shock us when we touched any metal components of the shower (knob to turn on/off, shower head itself, hose, etc.) It was worrisome because as water is a conductor for electricity it seemed like a big issue for there to be electricity running through the water. When I reported to the host, we didn’t get a response for 2 days + were only essentially told to ‘be careful’, no options were given to fix it or provide alternate solution. We were pretty disappointed with that.
Airbnb as a company however was great when I reported the issue to them directly and they helped us out.
Other than the shower — The apartment is on the outer part of the 18th, we were hoping it would be a little more inside of Paris but Airbnb doesn’t provide exact locations until you book. It wasn’t a huge issue for us but just to note in case it would matter to some. It was still easily accessible to get around by bike everywhere. With taking Ubers or driving, traffic might be an issue. It’s a small studio but enough space for 2 people. We spent 99% of our time outside of the apartment, other than sleeping. It’s the top floor & no elevator so consider your bags to carry up stairs!
The neighborhood has food options nearby & convenient store on the same block.
I hope the water/electrical issue gets resolved. I would inquire prior to booking, though I believe Airbnb is also involved at this point.
