I traveled to Paris with my friends and we stayed in this hotel for a few days. Rooms aren't so comfortable but beds are good. Toilet looks very clean, TV is in rooms, food was very tasty... Location is okay aswell, because it's close to big shopping centre and metro station. If you think about good price or about place which isn't so close to Paris, this Hotel could be good for you.

I stayed here in April 2012 with a tour group from my school and this was the sixth hotel we stayed at of our trip, so we had become accustomed to what an average European room was like. This was by far the worst we stayed at. There was people from our school on various floors, so it is safe to say this was not just a few rooms. The room I stayed in with two other people was very gross and tiny. Our bathroom was really small and had a standup shower that only a small person could fit in comfortably. There was also no shelves in the shower which was not a big deal but did cause a mess if you had to open the door and grab stuff from outside. Our beds were okay, but some of the blankets had rips in them. There was also stains on the curtains and floor, and a small hole in our ceiling. Then on our last day when we were packing up to leave, we found old McDonalds french fries on the floor (there was a McDonalds next door to the hotel). I do not know what the cost of this hotel was as it was built into our whole trip cost. Some of the positives of the hotel would be the nice McDonalds next door, and the mall just a 5 minute walk up the street. Those are nice places to go, and they are very close!

This hotel is a long metro ride from Paris however I also stayed with a tour group and I assume they did so to keep the costs down. Hotel was clean, bathrooms were the largest we had in our 7 days in France and they had hair dryers unlike the hotels we stayed at in Northern Frances (Normandy & Saint Malo area). Breakfast Buffet was the best of the three hotels we were at. The front desk people were not very friendly but not rude either. The hotel has no a/c so it was hot and opening the windows didn't work due to the noise of the nearby Metro. There is a McDonald's attached but it is not open for breakfast. We left early in the morning and got back late at night. It did have free wifi in the rooms and you did have to get a code but still better than no wifi, wifi in lobby only or wifi you have to pay for, which is how some of the hotels were. Beds were comfortable but there was a musty smell in the room that did go away once the windows were open. If you are looking for affordable and don't mind the long Metro trip, this might work for you.

I stayed at this hotel during a group trip. I was one of the adult chaperones supervising a school group of teenagers visiting Paris. This hotel is a 45 minute metro ride from center city in Paris, and it's a poor choice if you want a location convenient to the city. In addition, the walk to the metro stop takes about 10 minutes. Not only is the location bad, but the hotel management is not at all concerned with customer satisfaction. The rooms are small and often very warm. There is no air conditioning in the rooms. Wifi is free, but it requires that you get a new access code every second day. The rooms have no dressers, no hand towels, no kleenex, and there is no ice machine in the halls. The shower is tiny, and it's impossible to move once in the shower. One day there was no warm water. The only positives about this hotel--the twin bed had a very comfortable mattress; the room was very clean, and the people who work in the lobby breakfast room are friendly. (Unlike the cranky people who work at the hotel reception desk.)It was difficult to get a good night's sleep because with the windows opened (necessary to get some breathable air into the hot, stuffy rooms) constantly through the night you hear the noise from the nearby trains and highway. Avoid this hotel.

Right place to explore Paris for less - we spent 400 euro for 6 days. The underground station is 5 min away from the hotel entrance and you'll get to the city senter in another 40 min. And no need to bring from there your shopping bags - you will find a large mall nearby. On the other hand the hotel seems to be a base for bus travellers so if your room is on the hotel entrance side you may wake up in the night - the coaches are parked very close to the building and their diesel engine starts loudly. Also all these 'coach-ists' tend to leave very early and make a noisy crowd near the vehicle in the morning. Other side of the building is facing a motorway so myself assume there would also be not that tranquil. The windows are not sound-proof when locked but we had even to open them wide - the weather was hot and no air-conditioning in the room. That was also the reason for small creatures to come and bother us - I'm talking about mosquitoes. You'll hardly sleep because of them unless you buy an electric anti-mosquito plug-in like we did. The room in general was clean and comfortable, so I cant agree with the other reviewer who was disappointed with it. We did not take breakfast and used a Paul bakery in the shopping mall instead, so I cant say anything about the food in this hotel but having the kettle in the room was very nice. Hope next time they will put there a fridge as well!
