Lovely apartment, fast and reliable wifi, excellent location (intersection of 3 metro lines) and great neighborhood, easy walk to Eiffel Tower
A few major issues:
1. A good number of necessities were missing in the room. Cooking oil, hand soap, trash bags, salt/pepper, sponges. Yes, you can collect them at the nearest store but it's quite a nuisance, especially if you're only staying for a short amount of time. The room is probably a little too spotless at the time you check in.
2. Construction was going on in the room directly above us for a few hours every weekday morning while we were there. It was quite loud; a volume at which we had trouble having a normal conversation in our room. I asked the host about this but they said they weren't informed about it, and that they didn't know how long it would last. I understand this wasn't the host's fault; we don't get to control when there will be construction in someone else's room. It was just terrifically inconvenient and annoying -- a discount would have been nice on the host's part. Some days we would have to go to Starbucks to take meetings and classes.
3. One of the lamps was broken from the beginning. I contacted the person who checked us in (not the host) and they ignored the issue after asking me if it was a big deal. Thanks to that, the room had quite dim lighting but as it happened, it was the least of our concerns.
