Massive disappointment. I and my partner had saved up and booked a holiday to Paris as a celebration and treat, and had picked this flat based on its quirky look and location. Upon arrival we realised that the photos are a big misrepresentation. The flat was disgustingly dusty and covered in hair, grime, and fluff. The bed had a dirty brown blanket covered in hairs underneath the duvet, which smelled far from fresh. Horrid smelling scented bags had been placed around the flat which make us sneeze a lot and made our clothes stink of it too. The bathroom was the worst. Layer upon layer of grime, limescale and a dirty shower curtain and bath mat made us not want to shower. The toilet hadn't even been bleached and the water in it was brown. Personal cleaning items such as hairbrushes full of hair, dirty dishes in bathroom and nail files were lying around. The red velvet curtains had white stains and dust balls all over them. The fridge contained off food from previous residents and there was food stains everywhere over the sink area and grains of cooked rice. We called our host and he sent a lady who came and changed the bed and binned the dirty toilet tissue etc with very little apology. She seemed embarrassed at the state of the flat. We left the flat for an hour in order for them to carry out the cleaning and returned to it very little changed. This ruined our days plans and caused us much stress. We couldn't afford to also then go and stay in a hotel, so it dampened our entire day knowing we had to sleep in a dirty awful flat. Our host did not care very much at all and sent a message to say he got good reviews so his flat is good. I am writing this as a warning to all other travellers! Another awful part is that we woke up covered in red bites all over us which has caused us a lot of discomfort - whether it is dust mites or bed bugs I don't know - but it is disgusting! I am appalled that we were not offered any form of compensation or care for this ruining our holiday. The worst part is that there is a cleaning fee included in your stay! I cannot fathom it - simply daylight robbery. Avoid at all costs. To top it all off - at 10am when we were getting ready to leave the flat the host was trying to get into the apartment with a set of keys! Carrying a suitcase! How unprofessional - check out was not for another hour! We left sneezing, bitten, with our spirits dampened knowing we'd wasted our money. There are plenty of other Airbnbs in the city - I advise you all look elsewhere. Lawrence & Roisin, Scotland
