“I consider this a 3-star property. Good location, no frills, good size rooms. I booked a room for my husband and I and two children (9 and 12). I was pleased to find that we got two adjoining rooms, which meant each room had its own bathroom. Being used to American style hotel rooms, the size of the room and bathroom met our expectations. However, one of the rooms smelled like smoke. Location wise, we took the train the Paris so the proximity to the train station and metro was a huge plus. Note that the restaurants and bars very close to the train station are bit over priced. The front desk was very friendly and helpful, but the amenities were minimal. We got free coffee and afternoon pastries in the lobby, unlimited free bottled water. We asked for ice, which was probably very American of us, and there were none. Overall, I felt it was good value for Paris, and the location worked well for easy access to transit.”

“I seldom stay in 4* hotels but when I do I would expect a unique experience. Here the hotel failed at check-in. We arrived at about 11.00 to leave our luggage and were informed that the rooms (we booked 3 for a business trip) will be ready at 14.00 (Booking informs that the check-in is possible from 15.00 onwards). We were back in the hotel after 15.00, but the rooms were still not ready. We were offered coffee and cake but still had to wait until 15.30 to get the room. The rooms are small with a tiny bathroom, but I guess it can be a standard for Paris. The room was clean but the room service was rather late during the day. My bed in room 104 was squeaking terribly (rooms 102 and 103 were fine though). The breakfast was a bit disappointing – the quality of the served food was very good, but I missed fresh vegetables and some more variety (two breakfasts of the same composition were enough). Next time while in Paris I would look for something else.”
