Check-in was a bit chaotic as the instructions said one place and listed another. Went to one that
didn’t have key with code given and had to go to then the other. Thankfully we didn’t have our
luggage with us while trying to do this.
We wanted a second set of keys and went to the other (closest).
The flat (apartment) is nice and roomy. Appreciated have the 1/2 bath for 3 of us.
One of the reasons we wanted stay was due to pictures posted on the AB&B site. Made it appears airy and bright. The window shutters were closed with metal slates that are pretty high up so the place looks dark during the day. Need to use a ladder to reach to open. At first we thought they were bolted shut, but figured out how they worked. Without natural light the space seemed dark…. Had to leave window shuttered to keep the place cool.
I asked for fans and were provided but they barely made a difference as the space has high ceilings. One was so tiny I had to just put my face in front to get cool air.
Towels provided were 1 bath towel per person. We were the first 9 nights and it would have been great to have a second towel. The washer/dryer was hard to figure out as it is different than ones in USA. Also the oven had no instructions so we tried but just gave up. Would have been nice to have been provided with a bottle of dish washing soap. As well as trash bags.
Had to look around complex to find where we had to take trash.
Had to ask another resident who lived there and happened to be taking their trash.
The place is very cute and would recommend it for location. We liked staying where we felt like we experienced living as a local rather than a tourist.it took a day or two to settle in.
Communicating was frustrating and could be a lot better. When we called the number listed for issues it turned out to be management in France. Tami responded through the AirB&B site. Would have been better if we got texts or phone calls. Some things weren’t as listed…. TV wasn’t accessible…. Just wanted to watch news when we where in.
Again it took a few days to settle and would recommend it if you want to live like a local. Convenient shops and restaurants in area.
