I am giving this Airbnb 3 stars, as parts of the stay were 5 stars, but parts were 1 star. The good: The apartment is just as it appears in the listing photos. The living room is large and bright with comfortable furniture. Even though the living room overlooks a busy pedestrian street, the noise is not a problem as it is a pleasant background noise (and I am very sensitive to noise!). The location is great--right in heart of town and literally 2 minutes to get on the beach. One note: there are three bedrooms and you need to walk through bedroom 1 to get to bedroom 2. To get to bedroom 3, you need to walk through bedroom 1 and 2 OR through a bathroom. The bad: when checking in, Francoise had shown me the washer/dryer, which is on the ground floor in a common area (not in the apartment), but she didn't give me any detailed instructions on how to use it. Our first morning, I went to do laundry but the machine wouldn't start and was making a weird noise. I went and got Francoise. She tried to see what was wrong, but couldn't figure it out and couldn't get the top to unlock. She then yelled at me (not in a loud voice, but the tone and the words). She said the washer was brand new (only 8 days old), I had broken it by not closing it correctly, she was going to have to call the repair guy. (I speak fluent French so I understood exactly what she was saying). Needless to say, it was quite upsetting to be yelled at like that. We went out, and when we came back the washer was working. It turned out that the washer has an internal metal drum that needs to be closed before you close the top of the washer. I had not know that. But I hadn't broken the washer, it just needed a minute to release the locked top. And Francoise had not shown me that I needed to shut the internal drum door. She then was put out that I needed to do several loads of laundry (in the U.S., it would have been 1-1.5 loads but her washer was tiny, even for France, so it was 3 loads). Given that the apartment was advertised as having a washer and dryer, I thought this was not okay. This was my first time staying in an apartment in the host's house, and I thought it would be okay as it was a self-contained apartment, but clearly this wasn't for us.
