We had high hopes for this place as it is a large apartment in a good central location. We planned to stay here for 7 nights. We were alerted to the fact that the dishwasher was broken and would be repaired during our stay, but that did not happen. Furthermore, the glass door on the balcony was a single pane door and the glass was not tempered. We found this out the hard way as the door was sticking when my partner was shutting the door and when the door came unstuck the glass in the door shattered cutting my partner's elbow. My partner ended up having an early morning trip to the hospital and 4 stitches. After reporting this to the host, Kelly, she said she would get it cleaned up and repaired. This did not happen either. Kelly had plastic put up over the door but did not bother having any of it cleaned up. We did our best to clean the glass in the bedroom, but there was still glass shards as my partner stepped on one and a pile of glass on the balcony. We booked the place due to the balcony and the view of the Eiffel Tower from the balcony, but just a couple days in our trip, the balcony was no longer safe to use. We asked to have to door repaired and the glass cleaned up, but Kelly stated she could not do it until a few days after we were planning to check out. When showing photos of this to Airbnb, they could not tell what photos were before and after the repair.
Thank goodness for Airbnb. As the place was a huge safety hazard with glass on the floor and our 2 year old staying with us in the room, Airbnb worked with us to relocate to a safer place for the last couple nights of our stay.
This place is also not a good place for families with young children. The apartment had a lot of curio cabinets with glass bottles and other glass items all at levels easily reached by young ones.
We had a horrible experience overall and I would consider this place unsafe for all ages until they install tempered glass in the balcony windows and doors. After this I would consider this place unsafe for families with children under 5.
