I am staying at Ibis Opera Le Peletier at the time of writing this review. Actually, just about to leave for breakfast dowstair, which is great but next time I will chosse some pastry shop on Cadet road instead.
Like:
Room is modern and spotlessly clean. Amenity is ok on Ibis standard.
Location is all people talk about. 100 m walk from Cadet metro station (station 7) makes it good base for Paris touring.
In room wifi is free, but need re-registration after using some hours (why?).
Bed is very comfortable, even though it's a bit too soft for my personal preference. Quilt is surprisingly warm (last night is -5 degree C).
TV programme is quite ok and basic, but at least I get Man Utd-Liverpool game on Sat afternoon.
Bathing facility is also what people talk about I found that it's not too wet after bathing even it's not fully covered from toilette area. Though, what I really afraid is how boiler handle such a cold water at the moment, but turns out very fine. Hot water works like what it should be, being hot.
Some may preffered free left luggage, but here they have paid stored luggage locker. I didn't plan to use but it's good option though.
Dislike:
Walkway to room is very narrow. (I stay at 502)
I get stuck in elevator once, while trying to go from -1 level to 5th level, but it takes only 1 min after I push emergency button to have someone helping us.
Not sure:
Enter/leave front door need hotel staff to open (pushing open switch at their desk). On one hand, it probably good security measure during the day where homeless is increasing from EU economic crisis (even thoguh there're limited numbers of homelesses around this area as I saw). On the other hands, it's quite hassle when I need to frequently go out for a smoke. (BTW, it's all non-smoking room).
