If you’re just looking for shelter (I.e. roof, bed, and a bathroom) and are on a budget, this place is fine. Otherwise, would not recommend to first time solo-female travelers. Area is not great. Partner was harassed by a drunkard within 30 minutes of arriving around 9pm. Roach ran across the hall upon entrance. Loud noise from train station. Shower has cheesy LED light-up shower head. Some litter in the room upon arrival. I don’t know how the other reviews were so positive, but my partner and I were both very disappointed and promptly found another place to stay. If you’re looking to have a romantic vacation in Paris, I would look elsewhere.
