Few pros but mainly cons and I wouldn’t stay here again, nor would I recommend it.
Pros:
The location is good, but not v close to tourist attractions (1 hr walk to Eiffel Tower, 30 mins walk to notre dame). The decor is modern and there’s AC.
Cons:
1. Feels much smaller and darker than the pictures make out. The layout is strange as the bedrooms are on the road so can hear noisy traffic when trying to sleep, whilst the living room is inside without windows to the street and feels a bit claustrophobic. We were only 2 people so it fitted us but it would feel way too small for 6 people especially with a tiny bathroom and the sofa bed would take up the entire living room if opened.
2. The terrace is a tiny box with high walls all around it so again feels very claustrophobic.
3. The cleaning was not done to a high standard - surfaces were dusty, the sink and toilet were stained which was disgusting. Plates had marks on so hadn’t been cleaned so we were disgusted to use them.
4. Sink didn’t drain (they sent someone to fix this the day after we contacted them but we were only there for 2 days so this really should have been checked and fixed before we got there).
5. The toilet seat was loose and the toilet smelt of sewage constantly. They didn’t fix this despite us informing them.
6. The handle to the bedroom door was broken so it was difficult to close it (again they fixed it the day after we contacted them - this should have been checked before they let guests check in).
7. There was a random door loose in the bedroom which was dangerous and could have fallen on us or the baby.
8. There was a loose screw on the floor - again very dangerous, especially as we had a baby with us.
9. I paid for cot to be provided - it was boxed and folded up and hidden away and left for us to assemble ourselves. They didn’t provide a mattress cover, and when we called to ask where it was they refused to provide it citing safety. I’ve stayed in many airbnbs and hotels and have always had cots already assembled and have never been left with an uncovered mattress. They didn’t provide any spare linen so we ended up having to strip the sheet of the double bed to wrap it around the baby mattress.
10. There was a strong smell of paint fumes around the flat which was v uncomfortable to the point it made it difficult to sleep.
11. Managed by a company so no personal touch, no tea, milk, sugar left for use (a few coffee capsules).
12. Check in process is complicated as you have to go to another property to collect the key going through many steps and lock boxes etc to finally get the key. We then had to go back through this process to leave the key at the other property so that they could come and collect it and deal with the things that needed repairing.
Overall I would not stay here again and I wouldn’t recommend it. It was expensive and I expected a much higher standard. For the cost, you could find something a lot better still in a good location.
