This is an average Parisian apartment, very old and basic.
Pro:
- Location is great, very close to subway, bustling neighborhood.

Cons:
- World's smallest bathroom, smaller than an airplane toilet. Impossible to shower or brush teeth without spilling water or staining something.
- The area is great, but also very noisy. Hard to sleep at night, especially when it is hot outside and the window is left open.
- Intermittent hot water. They have a small water heater which provides about 50 liters of hot water. It is not always enough for 2 people, had to shower with cold water a few times.
- Fourth floor and no elevator. Pack lightly or you will regret this carrying the bags up there.
- The bed is mediocre and the linen cleanliness was questionable, but this seems to be normal for the accommodation in this price range in Paris.
- A ridiculous rug in the hallway that you are forbidden to walk on.
- Had only two sets of towels for a week that we were supposed to wash and dry ourselves.
- There is not even a toilet paper holder in the toilet, yet the host complained she found a roll of toilet paper lying on the floor. Yes, that's exactly what happens when you don't install a holder (btw, the roll was likely knocked down from the shelf by the draft after we left, but does not matter).
- The host demanded more money after check out because we forgot to wash a glass and left a single bag of trash behind us (were in a rush to catch the plane, forgot to double check). She even expected we would clean the mirrors in the shower! The two of us spent a week cramped in this tiny apartment, it is reasonable to expect some clean up would be required. Very unprofessional, better charge a cleaning fee in advance like everyone else does. Paid only because the host also found some scratch on the wooden cabinet, perhaps this was us handling a heavy steel chair in the room.
- I have to write this ridiculous review replying to the host's pathetic complaints about a dirty glass in the kitchen and stained mirrors instead of work.
