Hôtel de la Place des Alpes

Oh sweet Paris.
To be fair I want to just give everything 50 000 stars because being in Paris alone is like a little slice of heaven.
I got a room at Hotel de la Place des Alpes for a steal online. Although it took a bit of wandering, I finally found it down a cute little side street. I have to say, this is definitely a ‘Paris-​style’ hotel. The hallways and rooms are tiny. Really tiny. I think I barely fit in the elevator with my one small bag. My room had just enough room for my bed and a desk. The bathroom was mini. So why does this place get 4 stars?
First, the price is unbeatable. The people at the front desk were always friendly and helpful. I love that the front doors are kept locked at night unless someone buzzes you in. The location is absolutely unbeatable. It is a skip from the Place d’Italie Metro stop which links to several lines. It is in a sweet, quiet neighborhood that is right next to lots of lively restaurants and bars. Also nearby is a Carrefour if you want to buy your own groceries. Even though it was small my room was cleaned very well every day with shampoo and soap always replaced and it had everything I needed (you should be out enjoying Paris anyway!). Also, they had perfectly-​working unlimited internet access (via a connector in your room) for something ridiculously cheap like 5 euro/​week.
Sure it could be bigger, but good luck finding something bigger in this price range in the center of Paris. This place really has everything you need.
