Our original accommodation in the Marais was chosen for its location. We were annoyed that we were given access even though our host was aware of the plumbing issue. We were very disappointed that our host sent her cleaner who could not speak English to meet us. We were later told we had to move to a comparable apartment within a short walk. This turned out to be over 20 minutes away, lugging our cases and was considerable distance away from our original location. No offer to compensate us was ever made. This alternative accommodation was in poor condition and not in the location we had previously booked.
