Even though the unit owner was of out town, we checked in early with the assistance of a property manager with no problem. Fabienne checked in with us to make sure we had entered the unit. Soon after unpacking, we discovered a small leak in the sink plumbing in the second bathroom. The second toilet also appeared to have some issue because the cover was off of the flushing mechanism. When we came home from dinner the first night, the entire bathroom floor had flooded from the leak. We notified Fabienne of this and she said she would check on it the next day when she arrived back from her trip. We also noticed that there were many signs of previous water damage on the walls of the bathroom in question. The next day, Fabienne came to check on the leak and said that the cleaning lady had notified her of the problem before our check-in. She told us that we needed to shut off the water to the entire apartment except when we needed to use the toilet and/or shower. Later, Fabienne discovered that she wouldn't be able to fix the plumbing problem until Thursday -- and we were checking out on Friday. So, the entire week, we had to work around turning the plumbing on and off in the unit to keep the water from leaking all over the floors as much as possible. Despite our efforts, the water from the second bathroom leaked into the unit below. I didn't expect to spend my time in Paris managing the plumbing in my AirBNB. We did what we could to mitigate any damage to the unit, but it was a stressful situation to not have water in the unit at all times and to monitor the situation when the water was turned on. As a result of turning on and off the water to the apartment, we did not use the kitchen and the washer/dryer beyond the first day. Additionally, anyone renting the unit should note that you must not use the water in the front bathroom at full volume, or you will also have water leaking out of that shower as well. The location of the apartment is great and the space is wonderful for a Paris apartment. If you can verify that the plumbing problems in the unit are rectified, you should have a wonderful stay.
