The location of this apartment is incredible. Close to everything and facing in to a quiet courtyard. It is easy to access with a lockbox for the key. The apartment is located in what used to be the stable/garage for a block of Haussman apartments. Because of this the apartment has some quirky features that may not make it appropriate for some people. The entrance to the apartment is quite narrow and there are stairs leading up to the apartment. It has low ceilings and very little natural light as the windows face north on to the courtyard. There were several lights in the apartment which were burnt out so this made it even darker. The shower is hand held in a bathtub and the ceiling height will only accommodate a person under 6 feet. The apartment was not clean and smelled musty and moldy. While the toilets and sinks had been cleaned under the bed and couch there were dust bunnies that triggered allergies. The sheets also smelled of this mustiness. We were told that towels were provided but they were towels that were so thin, crusty and smelly that I don't think I would use even on my dog. We bought towels at the nearest department store for our own use. The refrigerator was also smelly as it needed to be defrosted. This apartment is Gabriel's home and his clothes and personal belonging are throughout the place. I had to move items in order to find some space in the cupboard. There was also an infestation of moths and I got several bites from something the first night there. I did check for bed bugs and the mattress was newer and clean although the mattress cover was too small for its size and hence came off every night. This apartment has potential to be a good place but it needs a through cleaning and attention to details in order to be an enjoyable place to stay.
