The apartment is in the basement and has no windows. In addition, it shares the entryway with the building’s storage/office. The place is pitch black even in the middle of the day and noisy because of the busy storage/cleaning supply room and being right next to the elevator.
Before I made the reservation, I asked Yoni, the owner, to show me the place (the price was high, and I wanted to be sure it was good). Instead, he encourage to make the reservation and then come to see it.
When I told him (on the phone) that the apartment was unacceptable, in fact, unlivable - tourists do not come to Paris and pay high price to stay in the windowless basements - his response was: take it with AirBNB. I did.
Meanwhile, Yoni kept more than $1,000 for the apartment, in which I didn’t stay even 5 minutes.
The whole scheme was a deception and other should be aware of it.
