The air conditioner’s vent tube is not connecting appropriately; there was a gap or space between the AC unit and the vent tube…therefore, hot air was blown back inside the apartment. The locked plastic tabs were broken from the plastic vent tube. We communicated this issue with the owner to have it fixed and even suggested what we can do to have it temporarily fixed. But, Diana was very defensive. She was not inside Paris at the time and does not know or have anyone who can have it fixed or resolved. She did not want it to be fixed. She even said that we “Americans are so obsessed with having air conditioning”. We took this to be very offensive. We are world travellers and welled verse in multiple languages and cultures (this is not my first time in Paris). We’re a family of four and arrived in Paris hoping for understanding and an enjoyable stay.
We wish we can post a picture of the evidence here but Airbnb does not have that option. We slept a few days with the windows opened, but you could hear the outside noises right late into the night. It will be hard for you to sleep with the windows open. The room can be warm if the windows are closed. They did have one fan to be used in one of the rooms.
Other issues, the shower drainage was clogged when we used it. A few pillows have stained in them.
Overall, the location is good; the apartment needs to have those issues resolved.
Lastly, the address is 16 Rue Saint-Roch, not 2 Rue Saint-Roch as on AirBnb.
