The Plus:
Best central location in Paris with lots of lively restaurants and shops right at your doorstep, Lots of space for a family. The fact it offers 2 individual showers, 1 bathtub and 2 individual WCs is a huge plus especially in Paris where space is at a premium.
The Minus:
Cleanliness needs a lot of improvement. We spent 2 hours cleaning the space after checking in despite being charged a cleaning fee of 120 Euros;
The floor was dusty (our feet were black after 10mn barefoot), the shelves, bedside table and cupboards were full also of dust.
The large black kitchen table has a major flaw as there is a ¼ inch gap all around it which collects all crumbs and shows the history of all food eaten on it. Because of depth of the gap and its width, it is just impossible to clean unless you use a very powerful professional vacuum cleaner to suck out all the crumbs after each rental…
We had to buy disinfectant wipes to clean all surfaces which had been clearly left untouched for a long time despite the supposedly Covid19 related cleaning efforts that we read on Airbnb. We took pictures and videos of the issues but this review doesn’t allow us to post them.
As soon as we checked in, we reported issues with this place:
-	The lighting of the kitchen worktop which was flashing non stop and therefore unusable. Not at all convenient since all surfaces in the kitchen are black.
-	Both bedrooms had their door handles literally falling apart and inoperative. If you closed the bedroom doors, you would be trapped in. So during our 11-night stay we never closed any of the bedrooms doors which was annoying when intimacy was needed.
We were told that they were aware of the issues and were informed that before us, the apartment was rented to a group of youngsters during the lockdown so the space was “a bit broken”, but the repairman had not showed up yet… and never did during our 11-night rental…
In conclusion, we loved this apartment despite the inconveniences described and we would be happy to give it a perfect 5 star if adjustments are made.
