Comments: A little out of Paris but right on Met line, not many places to eat dinner or breakfast, very cosmopolitan area to be staying in. Would recommend for a brief stay

Comments: The directions to find the hotel are really bad. I got lost at 23h30, alone (I'm a girl), and the neighborood didn't seem safe at all. Those directions really need to be fixed. At least, the staff was friendly and the room was clean.

Comments: The reception staff all speak English and gave good advice. The free wi-fi was great, and it had other great extras like free safes, t.v in the room and breakfast (8 euro but you there’s no limit on what you can eat!) which was amazing since we’re used to staying in hostels. Okay it’s a bit far out but the metro is so close and easy to use it was never a problem. Recommended!

Comments: My friend and I were here for two nights. Last night i went into my room and noticed that it wasn't made up at all. We didn't have any clean towels and the beds weren't made. I went down and asked the guy at the desk and he said that we needed to have left our room key so they would know we were gone and not sleeping all day; even though we had left the sign on the door for our room to be cleaned. My friend and I were very disappointed.

Comments: I'd definitely stay here again. Looks like it's just been renovated, there's an area downstairs with internet access and a bar, near to the metro….clean, good quality accommodation and helpful staff.

Comments: We had a great time at the Armstrong. The location was a BIT out of the way but a tube ride and you could get anywhere you needed to be. We spent five glorious nights there and would not have gone anywhere else. You could not beat the price and the staff was phenomenal. We would go there again AND recommend it to friends.

Comments: Je n'ai rencontré aucun problème en particulier. A améliorer: ventilation et air conditionné (trop chaud dans les chambres). Petit déjeuner (8 euros) un peu trop cher.

Comments: The Hotel Armstrong is somewhat difficult to find by car but maybe that was just because the streets are so busy and hectic that you can only get lost. They charge extra for parking (14 euro / 24 hours) and if you want breakfast it will be 8 euro per person. The hotel is located on the outskirts of Paris but the next Metro station is 2 minutes down the street and it takes about 10 to 15 minutes to get to Notre Dame and the Louvre. The staff was friendly and helpful. the room was small but had a tv and its own bathroom, which is not too great but it works. Overall the Hotel Armstrong is an ok place to stay if you simply need somewhere to sleep at night.

Comments: This is a hotel not a hostel, as its name suggests. Very good price for the room, and a friendly and helpful staff. It is a bit far away from the city center, but if you want a private room, you can't beat the price. I would definately stay there again on my next trip to Paris.

Comments: We had a lot of difficulty finding the location, we asked everybody around and nobody knew the place, after sometime we found it. If you are coming from the Porte the Montreuil metro station, take the exit that says: Hopital de La Croix Saint Simon. The hotel is a little bit far from the major attractions in Paris, but the metro station is a few minutes away from the hotel. The room was clean, roomy, good LCD tv. I recommend this hotel.

Comments: The front desk managers were very nice and were willing to help but there's a lack of communication between maintenance and the front desk due to the fact that complains in the room weren't fixed.

Comments: This hotel is ok. It is on the outskirts of Paris, so it is not in the best or safest location, but it is close to an underground station. The room, although small, was clean, and it was nice to get a break from the hostels for a few days.
