Positives:
* Location - a super convenient location right in the Marais close to Saint Paul metro and lovely shops, bars and restaurants.
* Peaceful - set back from all the hustle and bustle in the quiet and pretty Place des Vosges.
* Tidy and common parts clean
* Communication with agent was good for the most part
* Smooth check in process and helpful agent
Negatives:
* apartment feels a little run down and in need of some TLC
* odd layout of apartment with only one narrow bathroom in the ‘master’ bedroom
*reduced ceiling height in places including in tiny toilet attached to master bedroom where you have to stoop to get in
* Smell of damp in upstairs bathroom and bed and bath linen didn’t smell great.
*Communication when trying to notify a problem was delayed
An agreement with the hosts at the booking stage for a later checkout (subject to no one else booking) was reneged and not notified until the night before which left us having to trouble shoot luggage storage in Paris.
Overall we enjoyed our stay in Paris and the apartment has a few positives for sure but we wouldn’t rebook this apartment.
