This hotel is very strategic and close to a lot of shops. Close to grocery stores, boulangeries, cafes, metro and Eiffel Tower is only a 15min walk. The worst part however is that stupid elevator, it's too tiny. One can get claustrophobic with this tiny elevator and also there's a stench almost like somebody uses Marijuana/Weed in our room all the time. The room itself, once you get settled in, is very comfortable, new furnishings, very nice finish and your nostrils will get accustomed to the smell, although you will not get high. Chris, the front desk guy and there's another young pretty madameoiselle who were amazingly helpful. The staff are all outstanding, very friendly, very helpful and knows English. Would really recommend this hotel.
