The apartment was located in a convenient neighborhood and the host allowed us to drop off our luggage prior to check-in. There were Restaurants, bars and grocery stores nearby. Unfortunately, that is where the good experience ended. When we checked in, the Murphy bed was broken and propped up with books to hold it up. After the first night, it completely fell into the floor, requiring us to pull the mattress onto the floor to sleep. The host was aware of this problem and actually requested that we wait in the apartment for a number of hours to let the repairman in to fix the problem. We declined to wait since it was precious time away from our short stay in Paris and it was my birthday and I was not going to spend it waiting for a repairman. The bed was not able to be fixed and no other accommodation or suggestion was offered by the host. As a result, we spent 6 uncomfortable nights on the floor. There were only three pillows in the apartment, of which one was old and flat and one was very stained with no pillowcase. The faucet in the bathroom was loose, which we reported to the host with no resolution during our stay. This required holding the base of the faucet while changing the water temperature and while turning the water on and off. The toilet, which by day three we had dubbed “old faithful”, would often not stop flushing for long periods of time. When we were lucky and shook the flush knob just right, we could get it to stop flushing. The bath towels were worn and only two were provided for the entirety of our stay. We have stayed in several other Air B&B locations and have always had exceptional experiences. This was more than just not meeting expectations; we felt taken advantage of in this rental experience.
