This VRBO was as advertised, and I recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable stay in a cute and convenient neighborhood in Paris.Pros:-Check in was very easy. Rodrigo communicated the pick-up location of the keys very well and was responsive to my messages.- Oberkampf, and the location of this apartment, was perfect. We didn't know much about the location before staying here, but there were a plethora of delicious bakeries, cafes, and restaurants nearby, and it was convenient to 3 different metro lines (less than a 5 minute walk to each). - The neighborhood was lively but the street itself was quiet and there was no noise from the street.- The kitchen was well stocked with basics (plates, cutlery, wine glasses, cooking utensils) and the microwave was also an oven! That was a nice surprise, as we were able to actually cook.-The mattress was surprisingly comfortable. -The apartment seemed to have been cleaned recently, and was well taken-after.Cons:- The unit was a bit dingy (not unclean, but worn down in some ways). For instance, the towels were quite thin and grey.-The hot water was limited. We got about 20 minutes at one time, so one person showered in the morning and one in the evening. This was annoying, but once we figured it out, we worked around it.- The shower was also strangely elevated--probably about 1 foot or 1.5 feet off the ground. We were able to get in and out fine, but if you have mobility issues, be forewarned.
