Paris Hôtel Le Mediterraneen

The location is great (just a 10 minute walk from Gare de Lyon) and there are plenty of nice places around to eat. The staff was also friendly! The beds were comfortable. There was a small TV in the room with a few channels. The temperature of the shower was adjustable and nice! Heaters in the room were working. It was very quiet, didn't have noise from the street coming in. Check-out which is at 12.

There was a LOT of MOLD in the shower and on the ceiling... It was very cold when I got in the room, because the windows were completely open. It was still a bit dusty in the rooms and didn't feel like it was cleaned thoroughly. The sheets of the beds were really thin.

Good Location 5 minutes walk from my arrival de Gare de Lyon 20 minutes walk from Gare routière Paris Bercy (Flixbus, blablabus and other...) The place look clean and the receptionist was friendly.

No lift and stairs are narrow and poorly designed. Only one medium towel was provided. I could find a socket for my phone and my computer. Internet was relatively slow and the authentication page took minutes to load.

The early evening, female receptionist was lovely, informative and friendly. The room was spotless even though no frills. Bathroom great. Easy access to Gare de Lyon.

The later evening, male receptionist was unfriendly when I indicated that I wasn't impressed with waiting more than 5 minutes for his response to my ringing the bell, knocking, calling at the "24 hour manned"reception desk. while he wasn't thereneither street door nor access door to the rooms were licked and the computer screen in full sight. Not good security. Also, the smell of cigarette smoke was seeping into my bedroom from somewhere. These things spoiled otherwise good things. Worth noting in description, the staircase is stone and spiral, which isn't easy with bags and would be hard for some guests. No lift.

Very close to Gare de Lyon train station. Rather quiet street. Good beds.

Staff doesn't speak English at all, not a single word. The window in the toilet was broken and remained half-open all the time. Stains of blood on the wall in the bathroom. No elevator and very steep stairs. Very problematic if you have a heavy bag.
