I stayed for just over one month (31 days in total) at 7 Passage Kracher, which is a hotel room in Hotel Auguste, Simplon. Initially, upon arrival, I was pleasantly and cordially greeted by the owner, who helped one of my suitcases to the first floor, where my room was. The room itself was very spacious, nice, and tidy. I had some pleasant conversations with the staff, and I got to know them a bit more, and they gave me advise on certain things like where to find a gym which I really appreciated. However, roughly after 24 days of staying there, I noticed that the shower had become infested with little, white shower worms (there were probably less than 10 (7 max) on the shower tiles and floor, however my shower sponge had become completely infested with them and I had to put it in the bin). I told the owner/receptionist about this (who was a middle/old aged man with glasses). He came to my room, looked at the situation and said that the worms appeared because I ate meat and/or choose in the room (which was completely false). He did not even apologise for the event or the inconvenience it caused me, and did not offer to help decontaminate the area which was infested. The worst thing in my opinion was trying to the event on me (the client) by saying I ate meat and cheese in the room. This was not true and did not make any logical sense (the shower room was so far away my bed) and even if it was true, I have every right to eat whatever I want in the hotel room I paid for and not expect worms in the shower. After I told him this, he still suggested that it was the case that cheese/meat was eaten in the room, asking questions like ‘maybe you ate pizza perhaps?’ – I said no to this, and the conversation eventually ended with us cordially talking about how bizarre and odd the whole event was. Throughout that whole interaction I remained cordial, calm and polite. Long story short, the worms reappeared the next day, however, due to the owner’s/caretakers atrocious previous reaction I did not believe that it would serve any purpose to alert him (the first time I told him, as well as falsely accusing me, he was very ill prepared as he only brought basic insect killer pesticide to kill the worms) I went to the supermarket and bought cleaning products such as bleach, drain disinfectant etc. I manually cleaned the shower are and bathroom. Picking out all the worms by hand. It was a truly horrendous experience, the strong smell of the bleach temporality affected my sense of smell and caused me to cough. Even worse, the next day, the worms reappeared (however the number had reduced)! In disbelief, I gave up showering in my shower room and started showering at local gym 5 minutes from the hotel (Neoness Barbès-Marcadet) instead for a few days. However, 2 days before leaving the hotel, I noticed that the number of worms had further reduced and was so small that I brushed them to a corner, but a blanket over them and showered. I wouldn’t wish my experience on my worst enemy. This experience doesn’t ever cover the other huge flaws of this hotel. There was no microwave, no iron or ironing board, no washing machine or any real ‘guest area’ were guests could eat food. The fridge area downstairs is far too small for multiple guests to put food there, hence why the owner didn’t tell me that it existed until much later in my star (in fact, he told me about the fridge area during the conversation about the worms in the shower). There were a couple times were there were hot water issues, meaning that I couldn’t have a hot shower in the morning. There is literally no soundproofing, and when you are on the first floor, you can hear the outside streets as if they are in front of your room door and you can hear your neighbours incredibly easily. They just provided a bed, and that’s it. On top of that, every time your room needs to be cleaned, you get charged 20 euros (you can simply not ask for your room to be cleaned, but when one is staying long term at a hotel, one doesn’t have much choice) . I was able to have some great cordial, and friendly interactions with some members of staff- and when I asked for extra hangers for my clothes, they provided some. That’s it. Trust me on this. Do not come here if you want to visit Paris. I repeat, DO NOT come here if you want to visit Paris, I’ve lived here for over 30 days, I got to see the how the place works. If you are looking for a long-term stay private room in Paris on Air BNB and you’re on a budget, do NOT choose this place (for the moment being, in the future they may change their business practices and improve their hygiene standards) , it’s much better to choose a better hotel or a hostel with mixed dorms that has a good reputation and that has proper facilities e.g. cleaners that clean your room without asking for a fee, ironing board, a washing machine and a common area for guests to actually eat. I wish I never had to make such a review. I really wanted everything to go well, but unfortunately, it couldn’t have gotten much worse. If you are going to this hotel for a 1-5 day period, then it’s just about passable. The other reviews are short term visitors (some of whom I saw and met), who had no real need of facilities such as a common guest area or a microwave or an ironing board due to the short durations of their visits, and trust me, they are being extremely...
