Had a great stay for one week in Europe at Claire's! The place is very clean. The bed is firm, yet very comfortable! The place is located about a 5 minute walk from metro line 5, only a few stops from Gare du Nord and Gare L'est for easy travel around Europe and access to CDG. A little far from some attractions on the western side of Paris. The only complaint we had was that although the shower is "full sized," the shower door only goes halfway across. It is easy to spill water all over the bathroom floor when showering. Other than that, great place in a pretty quiet neighborhood!
