While the photos are beautiful and the location is ideal, this is an apartment that is way past its prime and has no business being rented on Airbnb. There are significant leaks in the roof: we had five separate leaks on 3 days out of 4 (even on days with light rain). There is a 1 meter square area on the ceiling where paint is peeling from water damage, there are hard water and rust stains in all the areas where there are leaks and around the base of the all windows facing the patio. Three of the five leaks are within six inches of electrical outlets, and one leak was directly over an electrical strip (which we moved). We had to place out pots and pans to catch the drips, one of the three days was significant rainfall and filled the pots 1/4 full. Most importantly, given the problem with leaks, there are no cleaning materials to clean up: no mops, no cleaning rags with buckets, the vacuum didn't work, and there was no dishwasher detergent. The kitchen had a significant leak in the sink and the drawers in the fridge are broken and stop the refrigerator door from closing correctly. The bathrooms have significant hard water stains, aging and deteriorating chaulking, and one bath room handle came off in my hand. The apartment is poorly cleaned with cobwebs and dust in high traffic areas, and under the beds. The bathrooms have no bathmats, and the toilets are lacking handsoap and washtowels. The owners live in Hong Kong, and the local concierge was completely unavailable. We got a hold of the owners in the Hong Kong, who very nicely sent their mother to come and check in on us (on day 3 of a 4 day stay). She explained that the leaks in the roof were caused by the neighbor's cat upstairs (??). She provided us with two additional towels for bath mats, a bucket and two rags to clean up, and another vacuum (which we could not get to work), but what can she do to fix the roof? She did not call a plumber to fix the kitchen sink and while I told her the internet was slow/not working, she was unable to address that as well. The cleaning lady who let us in did not speak a word of English, and was stingy with towels: she offered us only 4 towels for 6 people and only two sets of keys. I negotiated 6 towels and an extra set of keys. The apartment advertises sleeping 9, but large parties should be prepared to travel in packs so they can organize getting back into the apartment. Overall, this is an apartment that should not be rented out. There are significant structural problems with the roof, and the situation is additionally challenged with owners who live far away with poor support on the ground in Paris. There is a ton of work required to bring this place back to...
