Pascals place offered me a wonderful stay over the holiday season, Christmas and New Years. It’s in a prime location with easy access to a few of the most iconic sites of Paris. There’s a few wonderful cafes for morning coffee not too far away, Ducale being my favorite. The room was perfect for a solo traveler, and had a few charming and useful decorations such as maps of the metro lines. I didn’t have any problems with the shared bathroom or any of the other people on the same floor. Everyone was very nice. There’s no kitchen so if you plan on cooking this might not be the best option, but if you like to eat out and want to be in the most expensive arrondissement of Paris for cheap this spot is perfect. I was there while the French public transportation was on strike meaning almost no metro service. Luckily Pascals place is only a short walk to the 1 metro line which is automatic and kept running despite the strike. For a solo traveler that doesn’t want to cook this place is exceptional.
