I have stayed at a lot of ARBNBs this is the first negative review I have ever given. It's Paris, and everything is expensive but I am reviewing this place like any other, Florida, California or New York. I have been to Paris before and had a good experience with the ARBNB, this was unsatisfactory. The kitchen was small but only had a single burner electric hotplate, there was no microwave, the host said something about microwaves giving off radiation and affecting children. The shower was in a closet apart from the toilet and would not close. If you could get it closed it you were locked in and someone had to let unlock you from the outside or you were stuck locked in. The toilet room was too small to brush your teeth or shave so you had to do it in the kitchen. The apartment was dark and the building had a moldy smell and you could hear the neighbors through the walls. There is wood floors that are rough and uneven likely put in in the 70's. THE 1870s. I had to pick splinters out of the bottom of my feet as I was wearing socks in the apartment. This isn't really Montmatre, the artist district, It's Pont du Clingancourt an immigrant neighborhood. The neighborhood is sketchy, graffiti everywhere, transients are hanging out on the street doing nothing late at night. This place reminds me of New York or Chicago. Panhandlers abound. We got a cell phone ripped from our person in broad daylight on the local Metro stop. My advice, pay a bit more and get a decent place the neighborhood isn't the greatest and its a dingy little apartment.
