Awful place to stay. Price and location to gare du nord were the only reasons i booked it. Paper thin walls, tiny bathrooms, uncomfortable beds, no pillowcases, no towels, no soap, no remote control for the tv. Poor communication at check in and OVERCHARGED by a couple of euro...not a lot but the hotel was charging MORE than I was quoted on Hotels.com. lift was UPSTAIRS and only stopped between floors! Most bizarre! Horrible smells and view onto a filthy courtyard outside.
