Hotel in Paris - A Very SMall Mess
We were on tour so this was choice of hotel from Contiki.I was on a tour and the hotel choice was out of my hands. The rooms are clean & the hotel offers free WiFi. The main problem with the hotel is the location. It's at least 10 minutes to the metro station, which normally wouldn't be an issue for me (I like to walk), but the neighborhood was a little iffy. Also, it's right next to the highway so there's a lot of noise. I'm sad to say that I had the worst meal on my trip in the hotel restaurant. I had lamb that was so tough I thought I was going to lose a tooth! It's obvious that the main business for the hotel is large groups, because I can't imagine a regular tourist would want to stay there. As well, Room was scarey. Foul odor coming from bathroom - I think from the toilet - and I had to keep the bathroom door closed otherwise I would have gagged and wouldn't have been able to sleep. Walls paper thin and I could hear the person next door moving around. I didn't interact with front desk but others that did said they were not so friendly. Poor end and bad impression at the end of a Cosmos tour. Don't ever come to stay here. It will spoil your impression of Paris. There is no charm at this hotel or location.
Overall if your going on your own to Paris don't stay here.
