I gave it a good thought before writing this review, and decided to do it now that I am home and feel safe. I did not want to report this to Airbnb or the host (mr ice) because we didn't know how he would react or if Airbnb might cancel the booking so we would have to find another place to stay in Paris in the July summer holidays (expensive given the lack of anticipation if that were to happen). I practically feel ripped off. The place is kind of like the pictures, but smaller and more dirty. The toilet is not a 'bath', it is a shared bathroom, outside the apartment with no handwash, and not even shared with the host/host family or a small/limited group of people, but with the entire floor the apartment is in. That said, the apartment is in a 'service chamber' floor, in a dark hall. The bathroom is as other reviews reveal: light not working and Mr Ice is a condescending guy that tells you that even though it is not his problem but the management of the building, he will tell them to fix it (didn't happen in our whole stay, so we had to go with a flashlight on). I am also really worried about the fact this platform allows someone to host without giving their real name. No AC (and very hot during summer), dirty kitchen and smelly fridge, dirty floor (and full of bleach: The first day when he showed us the place during check in, I step in a bleach pool in the floor, how did I notice? because when I did, Mr Ice noticed it and cleaned it as it was water, but then I could see bleach stains in a towel he left in front of the 'kitchen' with bleach stains.), dirty and full-of-mold shower. In all, we just used the place to sleep (didn't even consider cooking there) and left as soon as we could.
