The apartment is less luxury, and more rustic than the photos would suggest. On the positive side, I will say that the beds are comfy and the bathrooms are nice. The location is great. The week we were there, the city of Paris was digging up the sidewalk on the street to change the gas lines. The noise was unbearable. We wanted to leave but the host would not refund us. In our opinion the apartment should not have been rented during this time. They said that they were not responsible for the noise. Of course we were not holding them responsible for the noise, but for the fact that we were not warned. It is their responsibility to know what is happening at their property. We also have a vacation rental, and wouldn’t dream of not informing the guest of something that would massively impact their stay. At the least we would offer a discount for the inconvenience. Overall, noise or no noise, we were disappointed.
