2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness
Not charming, not quiet, not clean
Renter be warned: this property is not as advertised. My family chose it for its supposed quiet and charm, but it turned out to be shabby, cheap, and noisy.
The apartment's bathroom was filthy upon arrival, particularly the toilet, which had pee stains and pubic hair. The overall cleanliness was questionable.
The apartment feels like a subpar student accommodation. The cheap kitchen cabinets have gaps inviting pests, and the furniture is unpleasant and cheap. The armoire from the pictures has been replaced by a temporary clothing rack. Despite the high price, nothing about this place felt worth it, and essentials like hand soap were not provided. Hand soap! If you want to wash your hands after using the bathroom, be sure to travel with your own hand soap.
The noise level is another major issue. Despite the listing emphasizing quietness, the ground-floor apartment is off a loud street. While the bedrooms are somewhat better, the living areas are very noisy.
We contacted the rental company, which sent a cleaner, but the initial impression was already ruined. It was my family's first time in Paris, and this wasn't where we wanted to stay. We decided to move to a hotel after a sleepless first night. I hoped the owners would be understanding and give us at least a partial refund. We were only able to talk property managers, as the person in charge was unavailable, and we never heard back, despite messages left.
This company cares only about profits, not your experience.
