Note that the host is a company and this apartment is falsely advertised as a private listing. Though communication via airbnb chat was okay, delayed response regarding problems during our stay was terrible and slow. We visit Paris every 4-6 months and lived in various airbnb apartment. This time is by far the worst that we've experienced. This is not the first time we rented from this host. but we rented a different apartment last time and it was fine.
Though the apartment was listed for 6, it was tight with 5 adults and 1 children (6 y.o). BUT that was still okay, we didnt mind the tight space. The main problem was the bathroom, the shower door seal was defect and when we shower, water would leak out of the bathroom door. To make situation worse, the drainage, which works just borderline okay the first 48 hours, didnt drain the water properly after that. So water would just leak to the living room and straight out the main door.
We complained on the 2nd day during our stay, but since airbnb policy states they could intervene if we complained on the first 24 hours, there was nothing that we could do, especially a refund.
Host reminded us they would send a technician but to no avail.
My tips to anyone renting this apartment. pls ensure that u confirm with host if this problem is fixed and if not, complain this to airbnb within first 24 hours of stay and get ur refund.
