"My room was very nice. it was on the small side (normal for Europe) but it fit my needs nicely. I was in room 426 and had a nice view of the Eiffel tower. I was praying they would put me in this room! It was such a delightful view. There is a small elevator to take you to the 4th floor. I was traveling solo and I was able to fit my bags inside perfectly. The front desk was very kind and accommodating. You will need to bring your own wash clothes/bath sponges- just a heads up to my American friends. There is a pharmacy a block down the street if you have forgotten any toiletries and they have great prices and a nice selection of Parisian skincare. My room was nice and warm, but I did appreciate the extra electric heater and placed it next to my bed on extra chilly nights. The walls are fairly thin, so be prepared to hear others conversations. I used a white noise on my phone and earplugs, and that did the trick for me. The breakfast buffet was very nice, as well. Eggs, pancakes, yogurts, breads and pastries. Coffee and juices. The best part was the lunch meat and cheeses! Do partake if you stop in for the buffet. The price is great for what you get. A block down the street are restaurants, a Fromagerie, meat and cheese markets, a small grocery and a bakery if you are too tired from walking, know you can get things close by if need be. Overall, I had a fantastic time here and the Eiffel tower was only a 10-15 minute walk (bonus)! Thank you Eiffel Rive Gauche."
