My girlfriend and I were quite disappointed with our 5-day stay here. Negatives outweighed the positives.
Positives:
- Good location, just a 15 min walk to both the Eiffel Tower & Arc de Triumph. The main shopping street 10 min walk.
- Nice, safe neighborhood.
- Apartment itself aesthetic-wise was beautiful.
Negatives:
- Very small space, much smaller than pictures. Just 2 adults is a tight fit.
- Check-in was a little weary. We arrived at 8pm, entered the building to a completely dark area. Used the elevator to the first floor & you walk into a pitch black hallway, not 1 light so it was a little creepy & took us a few minutes to find the front door, which we had some trouble with bc the door is half-broken. You need to kick the door in hard for it to open. None of which was explained in the check-in details.
- Apartment was incredibly warm although the AC was blasting and on its coldest temp, it’s much too weak for the space. You can’t feel the air standing more than 5 feet in front of the AC so sleeping was uncomfortable. I had to sleep on the couch so I could lay directly in front of the AC otherwise I’d wake up drenched in sweat.
- There was a plumbing issue, every time the toilet was flushed, an awful rotten egg smell would happen which would last a while and go out to the hallway.
- Few toiletries- no conditioner, only 1 roll of toilet paper (for a 5-day stay), only 1 towel for each of us but a few hand towels.
- Bathtub is a waste. It’s nice to look at, otherwise you can’t use it. Water takes a long time to fill the tub and is murky. The tub faces the bed so you can’t watch tV if you wanted to. There’s nowhere to put your phone, a drink or anything except on the floor.
- View is of other apartments which can all see directly into your apartment if you have any lights on.
- Laundry is 1 washer and dryer down the hall which is also used by the other tenants so you have to get lucky that no one’s using it, and then it’s 15 euros just for 1 load of clothes for washer/dryer, which wasn’t mentioned in details.
Overall I wouldn’t stay here again. Too many negatives, there’s much better options out there for cheaper. Definitely not worth the price/night.
