This is not the place we stayed at for the second leg of our trip. We were supposed to be at Rue de Javel but he changed us to Bis rue de la roquette. Unfortunately the host has never sent us a new booking for the second leg of our trip but we wanted to let others know our experience with Philippe
Here is our story:
We had booked a different place with Philippe for two legs of our trip. A few days before our arrival he had a problem at the place we booked so he asked if we would switch to this place and assured us the new place would be available to us for both legs of our trip. We had to switch up some of our plans due to the new location in a different part of Paris.
1st leg of trip: The new place (Rue de Javel) was lovely. It had a great layout and was nicely furnished. The apartment was close to the Metro. We enjoyed our stay.
2nd leg of trip: We were switched a second time from our original and followup booking. The first place we were switched to was lovely and you assured us it would be available to us on the second booking we had with you. The the day before we were to arrive we were switched again. I advised you that we needed to be compensated for the Uber and the extra cost associated with a move to a complete other side of Paris. You said you would. You never sent us a new booking for the new location even though you told me you would. The location I am reviewing now is Bis rue de la roquette. Difficult to find didn't come up on Uber/Google maps. We arrived a little late as we were having trouble finding street. Tried to reach the host but there was a delayed response. The person that greeted us (Celia) was annoyed that we were late. Not a great location very far away from everything touristy. Bathroom was not very clean. Awkward steps into commode room and bedroom. Be very careful with steps that you don't trip. Main window to street was shattered on outside, but had bars and second window. Very awkward door to open, close and lock. The kitchen floor is a bit shaky, be careful. We were not happy with our last 2 nights. Did not feel valued by Host
