Unfortunately we left Octavians place within in an hour of checking in. The place seems as pictured when entering the house. However things quickly went downhill when we went into the bathroom. The bathroom was extremely dark, even with all the lights on… it was like a horror movie. This made us felt very uncomfortable. The place is not as clean and well lit as pictured.. it’s an old studio with decorative wallpaper…. We would not have been able to sleep or settle in this place at all. If I could share pictures on here you all would LOL and run.
Theres only a big tub/jacuzzi to shower in, don’t book this place is you’re older or have difficulties with your legs, chances of someone slipping and falling when showering is HIGH. Although we did not use the shower it seems like it would be difficult to shower in. There are water damage everywhere on the floor, I’m sure there’s mold under neath, which could explain the smell of the place.
NOT A 15 minutes walk to Eiffel Tower. We were very disappointed to find out that it was at least a 30-35 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower, FALSE ADVERTISMENT.
We immediately regret booking our stay here. Yes it’s cheap and only $100 / day… but it was not worth it for us. We would’ve hated to explore Paris and come home tired to such a creepy, old and uncomfortable place.
We ended up booking a hotel and left this place within an hour… what a waste of money!
