Some Concerns
This is my third VRBO stay in Paris, so I am well aware of the idiosyncrasies of the Paris housing market. First, the location is great and the roominess of the apartment is amazing for Paris. The general cleanliness of the apartment was also great, but the quality of the linens, furnishings etc. is quite low.Three things to be aware of:1. The apartment is directly on the street, so being inside with the curtains open can be awkward because you are right on the sidewalk. The plus side is that there was no stairs to get into the space, and the street is safe and very quiet.2. The bedrooms/bathrooms are in a windowless basement and there is a strong musty/dirty drain smell. With use, the smell dissipated over time, and we did use an air freshener to help with the first night. It was also helpful to keep the drains covered and the bathroom doors closed during the day.3. The upstairs couch/chairs need to be replaced. They are dirty and not very comfortable for lounging. These are not deal breakers for us, these were just the things that shocked us a bit when we arrived. We had a great stay, and I believe the price of this VRBO reflects these drawbacks. I just wish the listing had been more clear about these things.
