Holiday apartment - 4 persons - 93100 - Montreuil

No blankets, no heaters, no AC, crappy fan when the weather got hot, no instructions for garbage disposal, 4th floors without warning there is no elevator, horrible customer service, a complete waste of money. Expedia offered parking, there was none, no space on the street to park for about a mile, got 3 parking tickets. It was so cold, I had to spend 4 nights in a hotel and spend more money. The worst experience while traveling.

The apartment was comfortable and practical for my work stay. I appreciated the dedicated workspace and internet access, which made it easy to handle tasks remotely. Everything I needed was close by, making life a bit easier while on the road.

Access codes to the building came late enough on the day of our arrival from an overnight plane ride that we ended up trundling our suitcases around Paris while hoping to visit some sites. there was never any communication from the person designated as our contact in Pris. There were stains on the comforters for the bed in the one bedroom and on the mattress. Ick.This is a health concern. The listing showed two bedrooms; There was one, and a hard sofa on a landing aka living room. It was not a double bed as shown on the listing. The apartment did not have a functioning smoke detector. There was an uninstalled unit on top of the fridge. Is this either legal or safe? There was a flight of stairs to read the entry, then 2 flights of stairs to reach the apartment though the listins shows a level entry and an elevator. There was a waster and dryer advertized as part of the equipment on the aparment' there was no dryer. From the outset, the listing showed us as Americans. We do not live in the USA or carry their passport. The error was not corrected. There was no fan working in the bathroom. It got steamy. The shower stall leaked buckets of water onto the floor of the bathroom. The advertized laptop work space did not exist. Check my guest services kicked in on the dayof our arrival. Given the crowds in Paris, that's very late to be planning a visit and reservations for popular sites. When we asked for a swap to a space more like the condistions advertized, the response was "not possible". We took photos of the actual accommodation and archived the ads for comparison purposes. There is no comparison. A refund is in order. An apology with it might help.

It felt welcoming as soon as we walked in. The kids loved having space to play while we relaxed on the sofa bed after exploring local sights together.

It is lovely to stay in quite place. A bit far from Paris center but easy to access to the metro.
