Good value and location. The Paris Est train station is a 5 minute walk away. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby. It's not too close to any major tourist attractions, but there's a metro stop a few blocks away that'll take you everywhere. The hotel itself is a nice remodeled building. The room was good and the breakfast buffet was great. For Paris first-timers, a location closer to the tourist spots might be better, but overall the hotel was good (especially for anyone making a repeat trip to Paris, and not too worried about being walking-distance form major attractions).
