ibis Paris Gare Du Nord TGV

Positiv: Very convenient location next to Gare du Nord and metro

Negativ: Very bad lift, slow and small

The staff was very helpful with directions to the underground, bus stop and bakery. The rooms were very small. We only ate breakfast one morning, and it was acceptable and reasonably priced. The lift was broken one morning so we had to walk down 6 flights of stairs; luckily it was repaired by the time we returned because I have problems climbing stairs and am not sure I could have made the trip to our room.

Positiv: Right across the street from Gare Du Nord Eurostar station. Excellent restaurants close-by. Bus stop right around the corner.

Negativ: Too far from attractions. Was in a shabby, not very clean part of town.
