This is an Airbnb for young people. Specifically, young people without a lot of money who still want to have an easy time visiting Paris for a few days. The location can not be beat!!!! A seven minute walk from the Champ de Elysees, and the subway line that takes you to Place de la Concorde, Jardin des Tuileries, L'Orangerie musem, and the Louvre. You'll easily pay fifty more dollars a night to stay in a hotel a 25 minute subway ride further away. That being said, the room is not for those easily grossed out by things being dirty or who find things being somewhat broken unacceptable.
Firstly, the room is up five flights of a rickety, tight staircase. 100 steps each time. We counted. Literally 100. The lock is loose on the door, so we had to prop a chair under it each night. One of the windows doesn't close, so DO NOT STAY IN WINTER. The room is dusty and dirty. The corners were not swept. The countertop table isn't stable, nor bolted to the floor properly. There isn't a single dishtowel or paper towel. There's no hand soap in the bathroom. Oh, speaking of the bathroom, let's talk about the toilet. Not only was it not caulked to the floor and could be moved around at will, but it doesn't flush properly. This meant that excrement remained inside the bottom, festering for who knows how long. The bathroom smelled like a sewer. The shower is comically small and duct-taped at the bottom. The fridge door doesn't close properly as it runs into the counter. You get the point. Basically, everything is a little sketch and bad.
All this being said, much to my surprise, if you're young, on a budget, and don't mind inconvienece too much, I'd still recommend staying here. The location and value can't be beat.
P.S. The hero of our stay was a fan we found in the closet. She needs some care and attention to warm up. But once she does, she will never let you down. Unlike the rest of the space. Her name is Gerturde. Treat her well.
