A very nice cosy hotel at a good location in Paris! (near by station Gare de Lyon) Nice staff, good interior, clean room, good beds and a parking place near by the hotel.

A very nice cosy hotel at a good location in Paris! (near by station Gare de Lyon) Nice staff, good interior, clean room, good beds and a parking place near by the hotel. I dunnot understand why the reviews are bad; I really liked the hotel and they deserve a good recent review. It were hot days in Paris so I only missed an airco in the room.

“Good hotel for a cheap price if you want to stay near Gare De Lyon”

I’m writing this review on my last night here because I feel the other reviews have not done justice to the hotel.

I’m writing this review on my last night here because I feel the other reviews have not done justice to the hotel. First and foremost we chose this hotel because we wanted a hotel at an affordable cost near Gare De Lyon station. We knew beforehand that rooms were going to be tiny and there’s no lift. Yes rooms are tiny and if you’re are a family of 3 it would be difficult but not impossible to fit into the bed. But then if you check the pictures it’s very clear. We knew that beds were not going to fit us very well and room was tiny but still we chose this hotel because it was at an affordable price and very near to Gare De Lyon. You really can’t expect to pay a cheap price and get a XXL room in Paris. There were other hotels nearby with bigger room size but they were charging a baby as an adult person. Pissed me off. Increase you charges but don’t bloody charge for a baby. Even cheap airlines don’t do that. Anyway back to the hotel: The receptionist lady was super friendly during our check in and she helped us a lot with all of our tourist questions. The receptionist changes in shift and all of them were good to interact and answered all our questions. We got our room on the 2nd floor so had to carry up our luggage but we were mentally prepared for it. The weather was pleasant during our stay so we kept the window open and it really got chilly by early morning. Had a pleasant sleep especially because we were so tired after the days activity that even trumpets couldn’t wake us up. The rooms were clean. Bedsheet and towers were clean and tidy. Room was cleaned every morning. Bathroom was clean and well maintained. Breakfast is simple and this is one thing you can skip if you want to try something else. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. We stuck to the hotel breakfast because our mornings were busy preparing baby food for the day so we didn’t had any time to go and explore for breakfast. I was really concerned after reading a review that said there was cigarette smell in the corridors. Fortunately we didn’t experience anything of that sort. There was no unpleasant smell anywhere inside. Overall it’s a basic hotel for a max 2-3 nights stay. And I would recommend it to couples/singles who have managed expectations. Cheers CK

“Near Gare de Lyon”

A convenient location near the Gare de Lyon and the Bastille. Very clean. A pleasant dining area for breakfast. Our room was the chambre de bonne type on the third floor with a sloping wooden beam beside the bed just below my husband's height - a hazard if getting up at night. No lift ,
