Libertel Canal Saint Martin - Paris, France     

The Libertel Canal Saint Martin is a very basic hotel. We had a standard room, which was very small. The bathroom was also small and certainly in need of a renovation or at least repainting. The room got too warm at night as there was no airco. And worse, we could not leave our window open, because we were sleeping on the ground floor and the window was so low that anyone could easily get in... The staff is friendly, but housekeeping only cleaned our room at around 17h00 which we found relatively late. Buffet is simple and can be compared to other similar French hotels. Location is not really good, but close to the metro so you can easily escape this part of the city.

Perfectly clean but tiny rooms. Beds are very comfy but the bathroom was also really tiny. We didn't realise there were better quality rooms available so would definately ask for them. Breakfast was included in the price of our stay, and consisted of the usual continental fair (brioche, bread, cheese, meat, yoghurts etc) which was buffet, so you could take as much or as little as you liked. The day staff were friendly and helpful but the night staff didn't know a lot. The hotel is really close to Metro station Jaures, which is easily connected to other lines and all parts of the city.
