    "We got everything we expected." (97856802)

    It was in the center of Paris,near train/metro,just as we wanted. Still-it was quiet and there was many restaurants in the area.

    As in all the different hotels we have been visiting during the last 30 years- there never are enough (if any!) hooks/shelfs in the bathrooms.

    "If I had known I would get the rooms upstairs. Hopefully the sounds would be blocked off. Also left luggages are charged at 1Euro per bag!!" (97543080)

    Near the train station and walking distance to many historical sites. Clean.

    Owner said we had to pay cash as card machine was down. What if we did not have cash on us. Also the room on the ground floor is next to the road. You can hear people talking as they pass outside and cars sound like they were next to us. Which they were. If you are a light sleeper, the nights can be very long.

    The help in English is very spotty. Sometimes the person at the desk can speak English sometime some, sometimes none.

    "For the money it was a good place to stay. Not luxurious but not slumming it either." (99829765)

    Convenient to Gare de Lyon train station.

    The shower is the smallest I have ever seen.A large person will have a hard time showering.

    Quick, easy and convenient

    Incredibly noisy street and the very very small rooms had very very thin walls.

    "I felt, whilst the hotel was adequate, that improvements could be made. The hotel, as with many others in the area, was convenient fot the Gare de Lyon. As commented above the rooms should have the facility for making tea or coffee." (3304917420)

    The accomodation was adequate for my needs.

    The television reception was poor. I would axpect, even in a hotel of this nature, to have facility for making coffee or tea in the room. A review of the furniture is required.

    "The information about the hotel was pretty accurate and as I have stayed in French hotels of this sort before I roughly knew what to expect." (3304579988)

    It was very convenient for the airport bus ans the metro and also within walking distance to some sights.

    They were doing alterations and the builders started work at about 7.45am there was a lot of noise from then on

    "For a low-priced hotel, this was better than expected. The bathroom was clean and everything worked. There was plenty of hot water, clean towells were there, adequate hangers and space to hang our clothes. The area, close to the Gare de Lyon is convenient but not classy. Some noise at night, but I'd use it again for a short stay." (3304557020)

    "The hotel was clean and convenient, the rooms are small but neat and tidy. I thought this hotel represented good value for money. Also there is an excellent bakery shop at the end of the road and a small supermarket nearby." (97482149)

    The room was tastefully decorated and looked like it had been refurbished within the last few years. Very convenient for Gare de Lyon and good shops nearby.

    The shower was a bit small

    "I chose this hotel because of the location. It is absolutely right. The location is great and you can easily access to the subway and train stations. The area is bit quiet, so ladies should be careful if they want to walk back to the hotel from the stations alone. Not recommended to walk around the area after dark. Overall, this hotel is best for people who need easy access to the train station and airport." (2509029)

    The location is good and easy to visit local attarctions. Air France bus stop is near-by, so access to the airport is perfect.

    I do not know why they never turn on the light on the corridor. It is pretty dark and I had to depend on the emergency exit sign to go down stair cases..

    "Upon checking in we were told they could not use their credit card machine and we would have to pay cash. When we checked out at 6:45 a.m. the next morning the young man behind the desk never turned on a light, therefore making it difficult to even see the bill. My husband had to go over to the front door to read it. Then the young man seemed surprised when we asked for a receipt. All in all, the bathroom and beds were clean but the entire place is shabby and we would not recommend for enjoyment, only necessity." (2363557)

    The close proximity to Gare de Lyon. We needed to be at the bus stop there for the 7 a.m. bus to CDG.

    Near train/metro station, room looked new or recently renovated. Great boulangerie at the corner.

    Expensive breakfast option.

    Le réceptionneur de nuit n'a pas voulu nous appeler un taxi. Il a fallu que l'on aille à la gare de lyon pour prendre un taxi.

    "J'aurai aimé savoir que l'hotel donnait sur une rue très fréquenté et qu'il ne disposait ni d'une climatisation ou au moins de double vitrage pour les fenêtres donnant sur la rue, ni même d'une insonorisation correcte au niveau des chambres ce qui sur le plan du rapport qualité prix me parait très léger." (2329881)

    Je n'ai pas de point positif sur cet hotel dans lequel je n'ai pratiquement pas fermé l'oeil à cause du bruit incessant des tuyauteries sanitaires et des véhicules sous les fenêtres

    Revoir la plomberie de l'hotel, investir dans l'isolation sonore des chambres inexistantes et dans une climatisation qui permettrait la fermeture des fenêtres car l'hotel est situé dans un lieu de passage très fréquenté des noctambules.
