We stayed 4 nights during mid June.
Pros:
- Location close to subways, bus stops, restaurants and several attractions.
- Building seemed safe with clean areas and a functioning elevator.
- Communication prior to checkin and during check in was good.
Cons:
- For those who book this place thinking they will have an AC in their room, please look elsewhere… especially if coming during warmer months. This apartment consists of two bedrooms, a living room with a sofa-bed and a kitchen area. We used all three beds/rooms to sleep since we were 6 guests. Unfortunately, there is only one small split unit AC in the kitchen area that is not enough to cool the entire apartment to our liking. I am not sure if standards for AC cooling in France are different to the US/Puerto Rico and this is considered an acceptable practice. Thankfully, the weather was in the 60s at night and we were able to open windows — but of course that means you are subject to the noises from the street (which in any big city can range from people being loud, sirens, cars sounds, trucks etc.). I am not sure how people that are used to sleeping in AC rooms like us will sleep here during warm summer days.
- Shower has mold growing in multiple areas including the shower head.
- An occasional ammonia-like smell is felt in the bathroom area.
- Communication after check in was not as good… especially when we communicated the issues stated above.
- This airbnb was not cheap and would have hoped for better considering the price.
Hope this review helps others as I do not see any mention of these issues on the other reviews.
