We were excited to stay at Raphaele’s place, but unfortunately had to end our stay early.
First, the location is perfect on a pedestrian street near the metro. The place is cozy & private with a kitchen.
Sadly, the place was dirty. The floors had dirt hair & toenails, but the bedsheets were all dirty too. Raphaele directed us to fresh sheets, but they were dirty too. One blanket had a large yellow stain that smelled of urine. We asked for options, and she told us she’d come the next day with fresh sheets. We were stuck with unsanitary conditions for the first night. I also asked that she clean the place while we were out the next day, but she said she wouldn’t be able to. Our itinerary would’ve been disrupted, so we ended our stay after 1 night. I felt Raphaele was dismissive of these issues, telling me to read her reviews.
I’m sure this place if clean would be a great stay, but it wasn’t our experience. Raphaele assured us this never happened before but I had to write this review.
