 No bad experiences Room is the bare absolute minimum in size like every hotel in Paris not a problem 
 Comfortable room with a fantastic new bathroom Great bed Lovely ambience and a usable Juliet balcony with table chairs looking out over the green leafy in Jul Aug at least park across the road Metro entrance 50 m away Reamur Sebastopol line 4 and line 3 Gare du Nord 3 stops away Gare de l Est 2 stops away or instead we walked 15 minutes which doubled as a people watching experience and a chance to absorb Paris pavements easy for wheeling bags along Similar distances in the opposite direction to get to the Louvre Notre Dame the Seine the Marais or the town hall
