The pictures are trully misleading. It’s not a duplex.There is a steel platform placed on stairs. The second floor’s distance between the bed and the ceiling is 80 cm. The bathroom is not a real bathroom. If you go there more thn 1 person be aware of that there is neither wall nor door to keep privacy. There’s just a curtain for the toilette to maintain privacy. The bathtup is weirdly placed on a level where kitchen is located under it. By the way kitchen is opened. This is really not hygienic because of the stairs position. As it’s located at an intermediate level so taking shower in it becomes difficult for tall people.It’s really difficult to get in. On the other hand, the host has written on her information paper as “ The hot water is not enough to take two persons long shower. Please wait 20 minutes if the water becomes cold.” Exactly the water was cold and it’s really not acceptable. She didn’t give any information about that in her airbnb webpage.The heating system is disaster.There is no central heating system. The heater placed in the house doesn’t enough to warm up the place.I DO NOT recommend you to stay there during winter time.The place becomes really cold.The only advantage of this house is its location. It’s really at the center of St. Germain and near metro station and to other facilities.
