First the positives. My communication with Valery prior to arrival was excellent. We had requested early check in because of our flight arrival which he was going to try to accommodate. As it turned out the place was booked the night before and he did let us keep our bags in the apartment until they finished cleaning. The location is fantastic. We've been to Paris numerous times and this part of Paris is our favorite place to stay. We were traveling with our 18 old daughter and needed a one bedroom place to stay versus a hotel room. The way the apartment is set up it really doesn't offer a lot of privacy. It appears to be a converted studio with a large sliding door dividing the main room and the so called bedroom. The bathroom is located in the main room. It's Paris so we weren't expecting something too spacious. One of the requirements when booking was the place needed A/C. This apartment met the requirement?? The summers in Paris can be beautiful and you don't need A/C or it can be unbearably hot where you need A/C. Our first 4 nights there it was a heatwave with temps in the 90's Fahrenheit. The A/C worked initially and then it stopped working. I contacted Valery and he said it would take 10 days to get someone out there to fix it. We're only there for 5 nights so that is unacceptable. I suggested he bring fans. He decided since we were sleeping in two rooms only one fan would be sufficient which it wasn't. At this point l requested another fan and that's when he stopped responding. Unfortunately you can't open the windows at night because it's loud and at this time there was no air flow so even when open no air was moving into the unit. The way the unit is positioned on the street the sun shines in most of the day and if you close the curtains what little air you have doesn't come in. At the end of our trip one of the curtains fell off the wall and we had to put blankets up to sleep. The other issue is the shower which needs to be repaired. There are glass blocks with mold and rust. To sum it all up if you say you have A/C make sure it works and when asked for solutions don't make excuses. A temporary fix were the fans but you knew we were sleeping in two rooms, bring two fans and try to make it comfortable for your guests. All we used your place for was to get a good nights sleep. We spent no time there during the day. Unfortunately you couldn't deliver us the one thing we were looking for a comfortable nights sleep.
