Starting off with the good, the host’s communication was great! Her replies were always fast, and she ensured that I got to my Airbnb all right. Location was also great, as you’re 30 minutes walking distance from almost all famous sights (including Louvre and Eiffel Tower), and there are multiple metro stops just around the corner. You’re also surrounded by several supermarkets and many great restaurants.
Now the not so good. The place was small, dark, and not very well decorated (the furniture felt old and cheap). The window looks out into a courtyard, which is why it’s so dark. There is also music that starts every night at around 10pm and goes on for hours (luckily it’s not too loud). But I think the most disappointing part for me was having to go out and buy all kinds of products (hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, garbage bags, dish soap…). I stayed for 1 month, so it wasn’t the end of the world. But if someone is staying only for a couple nights, it doesn’t make sense to have to buy all these things!
I feel that if I had paid less for my stay, I would have been a lot more satisfied. However, my opinion is that the place is overpriced in its current state. Still, I’m confident that most of the things I mentioned can be improved, making this a great place to stay! ☺️
