I am going to preface this by saying the overall hotel stay was great, especially considering we spent very little time in our actual hotel. That being said, please please note that there is absolute truth in the reviews that state the hotel rooms are very small, especially compared to what most Americans are used to in the States. However, my stay was about convenience, safety, and simply having a clean place to rest. I spent very little time in the actual hotel room. The staff were very kind and helpful. The evening we arrived, the desk attendant was kind enough to give me a map of the entire city, and explained how to get to all the most desirable sights to see. He made restaurant recommendations and provided lots of advice from a local’s perspective.
The elevator is tiny. We could only go up one at a time with our bags. Keep that in mind. Still, it did not take away from the overall experience.
It was very helpful that a metro station is literally right outside the door. We could easily walk to the Eiffel Tower, and there were tons of restaurants nearby, plus a convenience store.
I felt safe the whole time I was there, never concerned about anything. No, this is not the ritz, but it served its purpose well and met my needs.
