Abida is a great host. He tried his best to give us a good experience and good tip. His effort is so much appreciated.
The apartment has some pros and cons as follow:
PROs:
- On 7th floor, the room has large windows, no specific view but at least it makes you comfortable looking outside
- Has lift (elevator). A lot of apartment in Paris don't have this and it turns your luggage into nightmare.
- Quiet neighborhood, it's quiet all day and night, never hear any noise.
- Clean room and bathroom
- Free water, coffee and fruit
- Good ventilation and water is hot enough
- Good surrounding, 5-10 mins walk and you can reach Metro station, 2 supermarket, famous bakery, Domino pizza.
CONs:
- Most dissapointing is that you cannot cook, however host did mention this in his description.
- For worse, you are not allowed to warm the food using microwave. This is really annoying, since it's what people are expecting at a Airbnb room.
- Separate toilet ! if you need to take a leak at night, you need to wear one more layer, get your shoes on and open door to go out since toilet is outside of the room. This might wake your partner as well.
- As a nature of sofa bed, its surface is not even due to lack of support. This might cause you some pain on the back if you are not used to sleeping on it.
- Water is not strong as usual, but it's still ok for shower.
Verdict: room is okay, host is great, but without cooking or warming food, you'd better stay in hotels (if same price) as they will offer similar things with better bed for sure..
