Andrea and I stayed long term in the rented space. Firstly, the communication between the hosts, who are part of a renting agency called Paris Easy Home was poorly handled, unprofessional,and needs to be improved. The check-in was delayed a couple hours due to a lack of clear communication. Throughout our stay, whenever we tried to contact the host via the airbnb app or email, they were unresponsive and we would only receive a response on WhatsApp (which involves the use of a personal phone number). When something was wrong with the shower though, Maria immediately saw it fixed.
Secondly, the apartment is on the top floor with five flights of stairs and no elevator and mostly not ideal.
Thirdly, the street is well known for its bars so the noise level can get very loud late at night.
Fourthly, the cleanliness of the apartment was nothing like shown in the pictures. There was mold in the bathroom; the toilet was stained on the inside; the kitchen had stains along the tile; the wood floor was dusty and difficult to clean. Additionally, the wicks of one of the chairs broke off each time it was used and was uncomfortable to sit on. The sofa bed, if fully extended, takes up the entirety of the living room as the size of the apartment is extremely small but livable for two people. It should be fine for a couple of nights but is not particularly comfortable.
Fifthly, because the heating is controlled by the building, it did not turn on at all during our stay, which lasted into December. There were not enough blankets for the beds and we resorted to attaining more to keep warm at night, since there was also a draft in the living room.
Lastly, the request for an electricity deposit was extremely poorly handled and we had to ask for the information before being notified exactly how much electricity was used and how much of the deposit we would receive back. We still have not received that information yet.
The only positive remark we have about this apartment is the location. It was close to two metro lines and easily 20 minutes from most major attractions. However, the location is not worth the price of the apartment and its amenities, especially for a long term stay.
We are terribly sorry for the bad review but we would definitely not stay again.
