Our stay at Monique’s had a disappointing start. While check-in was smooth with the host’s liaison meeting us on time, the cleaner was still at the apartment finishing when we arrived at 19:45. The issue was there were dirty dishes in the dishwasher and cleaning was not done well. Also, there wasn’t follow through with the initial parking offer so we ended up having to search for parking upon our arrival after driving 6 hours from Germany.
After all this, response was timely and things were rectified quickly. We actually had a pleasant stay at Monique’s. She seemed nice and her apartment had much to offer: amazing rooftop views from the terrace and windows including Eiffel Tower and Sacre Couer in the distance, more space than other Parisian apartments, washing machine, espresso maker, and a perfect location- close to Metros, nice walk to Montmartre and neighboring arrondissements, a quintessential Parisian neighborhood away from throngs of tourists, etc. Would recommend to others!
