Chic apart with bar in Paris

Stade de France is nearby, so this works if being close to it is what you need. The stay was okay, in line with what we paid, so don't expect much.

The staff made the stay feel cared for, especially Elena and Hessen, who were so friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is cosy and seems thoughtfully equipped with what you might need. Breakfast was simple, fresh, and tasty. There isn't much around here for a nice breakfast, so keep that in mind. Getting into the city centre was convenient too.

I wouldn't stay here for more than a night or two, just somewhere to sleep. The rooms are tiny and old, and the corridor smelled awful. The area in Paris felt very dangerous to me. At 11pm they took about an hour to check me in. Once the receptionist's shift ended, a Russian girl at the desk helped me and spoke English well. She was the only receptionist I rated highly, 5 out of 5; the others were extremely rude. Even basic hygiene costs extra: they charged €10 for fresh towels, and said they'd only change them if you stayed over 7 days.

Elena at reception was lovely and helped whenever I needed it. The hotel is also easy to reach from the metro and bus stops, which are a few stops from the city centre. My room wasn't especially clean or spacious, but I'd recommend the place because of Elena's hospitality.
