I've staying in a number of Airbnb's and part of the reason I like staying in them is the amenities are usually over and above from a standard hotel room + more cost effective. All the extras you don't get from a hotel room - kitchen, comfortable place to relax after a full day of activities, extra towels and a lot of the comforts of home. However, when we were greeted, we got a showing of the space which was good. We each got ONE bath towel - no extras or where to find a hand or face towel were provided. And we rented the space for 11 days! On top of it, the towels, no joke, were like sandpaper. I had to search around for an extra towel because we had a guest with us, which I told them, but they didn't give us one for them. We had to ask for extra sheets for them too, so we could make a bed on the couch. On top of it, the pillows were not super clean, and had to search for extras. The bedding I felt was not laundered from prior guests - lets just say there was sand/dirt at the foot of the bed. I also don't think they laundered the duvet cover after each guest. There was no top sheet just the duvet, which is fine, I guess, but if not, then you need to launder each time. Yuck! Going beyond the cleanness and amenities. The location is fantastic! Loved the area and we felt super safe perfect base for running around Paris. Walking distant to a lot of focal points in the city. The Metro was close too. In the evening, it got a bit loud from being so close to the river because we slept with the windows open, but it didn't really keep us up. There was lots of stores and restaurant on the island. The Gelato at the end of the street is the BEST! The building was charming but old. It wasn't super clear, but the apartment is on the first floor, so you need to walk up one flight of stairs - not bad. The apartment stayed relatively cool even though it didn't have air conditioning and we were there when the highs were in the 80ºF/26ºC to 90ºF/32ºC. I didn't ever feel like I needed air. With the windows open a lovely breeze came in. The main room with bed and couch is very spacious for a typical Europe room. The toilet room - extremely small. My knees hit the door when I sat down. Barely any room to move around, if you are a larger person, I'd be concerned. Side note on the toilet, J & Q left on vacation while we were there and left without restocking the toilet paper, not happy about that. We had to go out and buy some. The kitchen was also small, which is fine. But only one person in there at a time. The title said bed and breakfast - a little correction there, no breakfast supplied. They really should fix the title. They had coffee there but asked if we used it, to replace it with some more before we left. They had a variety of ways to brew the coffee, none of which had directions on how to use the appliances. I would have liked to make coffee in the mornings since the island really doesn't wake up until 9am, so it was difficult to get anything in your belly before that if you hadn't purchased something and stored it in the kitchen. Also, the fridge was basically a dorm room mini-fridge with no freezer portion. The bathroom was a bit of a challenge as well. The sink faucet was old and moved around. It was a little janky. The shower, which was a tub had a handheld shower head and a bracket to place the handheld in so you could stand underneath it to shower, but it was broken. So you basically had to get yourself wet, turn it off and suds up and then rise off. The tub had a half glass door, I guess you could say, so water would not spray everywhere, but it was still difficult to keep water from going everywhere. There was no skid resistance on the tub floor, so each time I got in and out, I had to be extremely careful not to slide and fall. The tub was a bit elevated from the floor level - about 4-6 inches higher, so it made it even more treacherous getting in and out. Nothing to hold on to either. So once you managed to get out of the shower without falling, there was undoubtedly water all over the floor, and as I stated above, with one towel.... yeah, wipe up the floor with your body towel? no, thank you. There was a hand towel hanging by the shower which we figured was J & Q’s hand towel, but then decided that it was for the floor, at least that's what we used it for. Sorry guys, if that was not the purpose. Side note about the towels again.... remember how I said OUR towels were like sandpaper? ya, J &Q left their towels in the bathroom on the only towel rack in the room, and theirs were amazingly soft….ummm okay. Bottom line, call us privileged Americans, whatever, but I’ve stayed at other airbnb’s in Europe and never have I had an experience like this. I expect basics and if I invited a guest (paying at that) I would provide some basics and think about their needs and try and accommodate. I would not stay here again especially given all the other options in the area.
