I had a negative experience with the Maceo's apartment.
I'll start with the positive, at the beginning we had a good communication with Maceo, he asked us a late check-in and we accepted it, no problem (we were four guests). The negative points happens after: First, the apartment is very unsafe, there are many homeless people living just in front of the apartment. We had received harassment constantly from these homeless by knocking the windows' apartment, both at nights and days, totally uncomfortable. Secondly, and AFTER our check-out, Maceo wrote me (at 4h44 AM) to indicate that his apartment had suffered a robbery attempt and the lock of the door was partially damaged, however the thieves did not enter to the apartment. I was in shock when I read about this incident (and of course, I felt sorry for Maceo, receiving this attack on his property), but it confirms how unsafe the apartment and the neighborhood are, as I reported above. Then, the totally absurd thing that happened after was that Maceo requested me (through airbnb) a refund of 2.500 euros!! for the damage of his door, which is total madness. Firstly, we did not do that damage to the door and secondly, that assault happened AFTER our check out. Thus, I am not responsible if something happens to the apartment after our check out. We have followed the Maceo's instructions for the check out very carefully, we closed the windows very well and lower the blinds and draw the curtains, to prevent outside observers from looking inside the apartment (something commonly done by these homeless people living in front). In fact, this was a special request from Maceo (lower the blinds and draw the curtains), thus he knew about these robbery attempts as maybe he had experienced it before. In addition, we obviously closed the door very well. In fact, the thieves did not enter the apartment, which shows that we left the apartment well closed, removing any responsibility from us about the incident. Therefore, I am NOT going to pay any of the money that Maceo had requested. Also, I immediately have spoken with airbnb (Resolution Centre) and explained the situation in order to remove this totally unjustified request of money. I also wrote to Maceo directly to explain him that we have nothing to do with that incident, it was not our fault, and I did not receive any reply from him.
To be completely transparent, and despite we left all the apartment and the dishes clean, we left one single pan partially dirty (we were in rush to leave and I could not finish to clean it). Additionally, Maceo requested to picked up the cover from the beds (actually, this is the host's job but I won't complaint about it) and we forgot to do it. Nevertheless, we have collected in one place the other cover sheets as Maceo requested as well (again, this is a host's job but I had not problem for doing this). I am sorry Maceo for these really really minor issues, however the assault is more serious and you have blamed me for this for no reason.
Final details: this a small apartment, more suitable for 2 people (we were four and it was totally uncomfortable), which is convenient for a short visit in Paris. Basically, it is useful just to go to sleep because it has only two chairs and even it does not have a table to have dinner. The apartment has a mattress in the floor and a sofa bed (both are old and don't smell good), which are not comfortable.
