UNSAFE, UNCLEAN AND EXTREMELY MISLEADING
Shortly after we arrived with jet lag and laid down for a nap, someone from the company WALKED IN WITH A KEY TO OUR APARTMENT WHILE WE WERE UNDRESSED AND SLEEPING. NO KNOCK, NO WARNING- THEY JUST WALKED RIGHT IN!!!!! We are all traumatized by this incident and we felt incredibly unsafe for the remainder of the stay….
Furthermore, since arriving to our Airbnb we experienced a multitude of issues that have completely disrupted and ruined our stay in Paris. Upon arrival we discovered that the unit was not only unclean (hair in the shower, brown and yellow stained bed sheets and pillows, holes in the walls, the fire alarm was hanging by a thread and didn’t work, overwhelming sulfur smell in the bathrooms, etc) but the listing was incredibly misleading. We had NO wifi internet for the entire duration of our stay, and as international travelers we were completely dependent on internet to be able to work and communicate with our families. The listing promised internet and when we arrived there wasn’t even a router or modem to connect us to the internet. I sent dozens of messages to the host from the moment we arrived on Thursday and we never received internet through our stay to the Tuesday. Not to mention- both bathrooms had an overwhelming and alarming smell of sulfur…
Not to mention there wasn’t enough toilet paper for the first two days of our 5 night/6 day stay. The fire detector was hanging by a thread when we arrived so that also didn’t work and the hair dryer that was promised in the listing also didn’t work (which we relied on for our packing….).
This entire experience was unbelievably distressing as we were in Paris to work during Fashion week- so between the unbelievably unsafe circumstances of someone walking into our rooms unannounced, our inability to work due to the lack of wifi and the uncomfortable accommodations due to lack of safety, cleanliness and a seriously misleading listing left us in a crippled state. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!
