PENTHOUSE Deluxe River SIENE views -Link 14 - Orly 10min

😊: The location was the only good part of my stay here!. 😢: The place wasn’t clean! For a property in such a good location, the place could use a good clean up and upgrade! The sheets, cups and spoons were so old i had to purchase new sheets, cups and spoons to use during my stay! No form of sanitation was done prior to my arrival! It was so disappointing! The owner’s communication wasn’t great as well. She was quite responsive just before my arrival and shortly after, then suddenly became slow to respond..

😊: The property had a lot of space for us. There was mass transit around the corner, a supermarket behind the apartment and a few restaurants to eat at nearby.. 😢: There were key things missing from the photos and the descriptions of the place. There was no fireplace as listed. The apartment was luxury in 2000. One bedroom (downstairs) had a tv in the pictures and it was not there. The lights did not work, either they were not working or the lightbulbs died. The remotes for the tv needed new batteries. There were 5 different codes to get into the apartment (4 for the building entry) and one for the key lockbox (the cleaners were there when we arrived so they just gave us the keys). We used the only tub (to give our son a bath) which happened to have hot tub capabilities, and gunk came out when he turned on the jets. There were wires hanging out of the wall in one bedroom and water connections hanging out of the wall in the bathroom. The place needed a very deep cleaning. Both bathrooms are located on the top floor of the apartment, this was an issue because the only other bedroom on the second floor (other than the master) had a twin bed. My elderly father in law who has mobility issues had to sleep on a tiny bed and had to use the stairs to go to the bathroom every time he wasn't in bed. Said bathroom had a pocket door and it was very difficult to pull in and push into the pocket. The place did not have enough glasses or plates for the 4 of us..

😊: Location is the top feature of the apartment. Super convenient, metro very close, Bercy 10 minutes walk if someone comes for an event. Space inside is generally well planned, however worth knowing that Masterbedroom with bathroom is on the topfloor which is fine. The other bedroom with double bed is on the lower floor and has bathroom upstairs which is not ideal.. 😢: Cleaning is a disaster. There were several comments about this already. It's a shame to rent such a great place with sticky and filthy surfaces inside kitchen cupboards, bathrooms etc. Essentially, you need to be ready to spend 1-2 hours upon arrival to clean the key areas before using. Not great if you have travelled for 15 hours. Contact with owner is limited - phone is off / in voicemail mode and your only channel is booking chat. It's not a problem if everything is fine but in case of problems, that is really annoying..

😊: The place matched the pics on the ad. Location was awesome..
