Folks looking for tolerable mid-tier Airbnb will be flabbergasted that this is a little dingy shop turned into a living space. That’s the reason for no front door photo on the listing. This place lacks privacy, it’s unsafe, unhygienic, noisy, ineffective as a living quarters. It’s shameful that Airbnb allows these types of places to operate. They give you an apartment number that does not exist on this place. There is a front glass wall separating guests from street traffic by merely inches. There’s no way for air circulation as there’re no windows or air exhaust where one tries cooking a tiny bit. Large Vacuum lives in the tiny nook of kitchen as there’s no storage area at all. Microwave is on the listing but doesn’t exist. Welcome involves a clogged sink, leaking shower, half a roll of toilet paper for multi-day stay, mattress covered by thin sheet to sleep on, closet that doesn’t open or close, nowhere enough space to open a single suitcase. If you tried living, it’s amongst noise, shoes, wet floors, vacuum, air that hangs with all imaginable smells. Welcome to Paris!
There’s also no accountability as once you paid, various people working for Checkmyguest respond and you repeat your questions or concerns with them to futility.
Airbnb must shut down such places as they are another form of scams that are popular in Paris. Such a place will not be allwoed to operate in USA.
