Hotel berhampiran Evangelical Baptist Church, Vitry-sur-Seine

I don't like to leave negative reviews. I believe that people deserve second chances, and I don't want to be responsible for ruining someone's business. Unfortunately, I don't think that my bad review will have much of an effect on this business, and I don't believe that the management of the hotel care if I leave a bad review. I found a cockroach in my room in the middle of the night. I let the staff know, and they did not seem to care at all. They told me because I booked the room through Expedia, I would have to ask Expedia for a refund. This was a lie. Expedia told me that it was up to the hotel to offer a refund. They attempted numerous times to reach out to the hotel, but they refused to answer. I stayed at this hotel to be near my daughter, who has a small apartment and is studying in Paris. I booked it online through Expedia, not understanding much about the area or the hotel. She tells me that if I had taken a photograph of the cockroach, that they would have done something. After my experience with them, I doubt a photo would make any difference. Obviously, I was trying to save money, and I liked that it had a kitchen so I could prepare my own food, to save money and not make an ordeal out of my terrible French. The room was a bit worn down. The sink in the bathroom had several cigarette burns on it, and the laminated wood for the sink cabinet had come apart from moisture. There was mildew and mold in the shower. The cooktop range nobs were broken and it took some time to fiddle with the to stay on. The kitchen didn't have a lot of things, like no spoons, and it was pretty clear that nobody had ever used the coffee maker, as it didn't have any filters. I'm pretty flexible and can deal with all this, but the cockroach was too much. I didn't want to risk bringing them home with me. The front desk staff did not give one @#$# at all about the cockroach or anything else. He offered me another room in the hotel, which I explained, made no sense, because it would be quite likely that many of the rooms would have cockroaches. Unfortunately, my daughter tells me this is probably not a part of Paris that many tourists visit, and I didn't get the sense that many people here speak English or read Tripadvisor reviews, so my review may not be of much use to anyone. The staff at the hotel knew this, which is why they ignored me and the staff at Expedia. I have been looking up their reviews on several sites, and they seem to be very different. I think that Tripadvisor and Facebook look like the only legitimate review sites (nobody in France uses Yelp). This whole process has helped me to realize I can't trust sites like hotels.com , bookings,com, or Expedia. Take a look at the difference in reviews of this place on these sites yourself. I should have spent more time looking into this place. I moved to the B&B Hotel that's two blocks from the Porte de Choisy metro station. It's a much nicer hotel with air conditioning, which I needed because of the heat

Hôtel sympa avec un personnel agréable. Parfait pour des courts séjours. Je recommande.

We have to walk from Charenton- ecole for 30minutes to get there. We were told it is the nearest station and within 1km to arrive. We needed to walk down the slope, cross the river not once but twice to get there. At the end we got to know the bus line 125&325 service between metro 7&8. The buses saved our days! It should be indicated into the hotel descriptions. We are family with babies and the need of baby bed was noted. Yet when we arrived (1 hr after given expected time), 2 staff were still setting up a simple foldable bed. We had two connecting twin rooms on the 7th floor. Can’t deny space is really gem in Paris. Yet we had spacious interior to accommodate a baby and a young child. Bathrooms have inconsistant number of chairs, shampoo/shower gel and soaps. One room has 4 towels the other has 2. Well, both twin room isn’t it? One with double bed the other has two single bed. We had one bathroom rack is broken. One bed head lamp totally not in place. Kitchen equipment not equal on both sides. No spatula for cooking. No bowls. Inconsistant number of utensils. No dish washing soap or sponge for cleaning. Ended up cleaning with hands only. There is no dishwasher too. Requested for sponge and soap, yet no one take our request seriously. We stayed 4 nights still nothing to clean. Fridge and microwave fully functional though. The floor is not so clean as staff walked in with shoes. Children has black dirty feet after venturing barefooted. Location cool for not visiting city centre of Paris. But if you are keen into hop-spotting landmarks here, this might not be the place for you. With children and family I would still be alert about the safety of this area. If lots of space and kitchen needed like us with young children, it is okay to stay a little further as we do not bar crawls at night. Most of the staff are not locals and could not manage our needs. Maybe they do not really understand French language or English. Management team need to catch up with hotel standards to sustain the attractiveness of this new establishment.

Eine guten Hotel und sehr ruhige, die Service sehr nett. Ich kann mich nicht beklagen. Es war echt entspannt. Und nicht weiter für Bahnhof und Zentrum 

Les seuls points positifs sont la qualité de la literie et la taille de la chambre familiale. Pour le reste, tout est vétuste. Le code wifi ne fonctionne pas, le coffre est cassé, la moquette percluse de taches. L’acceuil est froid Et peu aimable. Le petit déjeuner est copieux mais avec une cafetière en panne et la qualité du thé laisse à désirer Bref, nous n’y reviendrons pas
