The host has contacted us by email before arrival and was flexible enough to allow us to check-in early and leave our luggages whilst the accommodation is being cleaned. The location was perfect (a stone throw away from Louvre) but was rather noisy in the bedroom from the traffic down below. Cleanliness of the property was questionable - dust below the TV spaces, rather thick dust that has accumulated on all the electric fan grills and blades (certainly this has not been cleaned for weeks), state of the curtain at the bedroom was rather tired and dusty. Towels, bedsheets and shower/bath mats were washed and dried together and not separately and were left inside the tumble dryer. Although the location is rather ideal but it didn't seem that the property was prepared enough. The apartment is in the first floor with narrow spiral stairs so it would be tricky if you have big and heavy luggages. Certainly not disabled friendly. There were hair dryers and straighteners left on the property probably from previous guests that should have been thrown away as they were not working. There was a cupboard in the kitchen filled with towels and bedsheets that have been dumped there. Very offputting. Thanks though for the complimentary bottle of champagne but would have appreciated even without if the property was made very clean and presentable.
