The apartment was in an amazing part of Le Marais in Paris. That alone i would have given 10 stars. There were a few things that I felt were disappointing. When my husband and I arrived to the apartment using google maps, we physically could not find the address. After walking aimlessly back and forth for over 15 minutes we were met with the apartment manager who let us in (forgot his name but he was very nice and helpful). The entire front part of the building was covered in scaffolding due to construction. I think it is very important that you notify guests of things like that. It can make or break an Airbnb experience. Like clock-work at 8am we would hear the hammering/working going on. It was annoying to say the least. We we also told washer and dryer unit was broken. I generally will always do a load of laundry before I leave and therefore, chose to pack rather light in anticipation for knowing that I can just wash some items and re-wear it during my stay. I wish the owner had mentioned that to us in an email. I just think it is a courtesy to communicate that. I had given Ludovic the wrong flight itinerary and accidentally booked 1 extra night by mistake. I checked to see if there were available nights prior to our trip (which there was) I reached out to Ludovic 3 1/2 weeks before we were scheduled to arrive and told him the situation. I stated that since there were no other guests before us would he consider refunding me for that 1 night so that someone else could book it. He said it was a month before the trip and he would not do so. I was irritated but it was my mistake. But, really come on. work with me here....The price of the apartment was extremely reasonable so for that I was very grateful fo considering it was in such a great part of the city. But the annoying construction, broken washer and dryer and not being willing to refund me (even if it was a partial refund) for the 1 night we didn't even use the apartment was really disappointing. I felt that Ludovic could have better communicated with us to inform us of all the changes/work going on prior to my husband and I booking this apartment. If i had known in advanced I would probably not have made the reservation.
