05 January 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: it is very well connected to the centre, close to a supermarket and restaurants, there's a bus stop right in front of the entrance and the reception works all night long. the room was ok, it had a nice view since it was on 5th floor, it was cleaned regularily

Disliked: i didn't like there was only one shower to use per 6 floors, which wasn't what i expected when i read shower's are supposed to be paid for, although that turned out to be incorrect ( they were free) on the plus side, there's a sink in the room

Liked: It was very close to Gare du Nord station and convenient when travelling from Charles De Gaulle airport, as you can get a train to the airport from there.

Disliked: The room had metal screws sticking out of the bedside cupboards. The basin in the sink was cracked. The room hadn't been thoroughly cleaned lately as the radiator was covered in dust.

14 May 2010

Liked: The hotel is situted near the Gare du Nord, but the area is not so good for visiting. The receptionist was helpful, but he didn't speak a very good english. The room was ok, spatios if you consider you are in Paris, but very smelly and it wasn't renovated since 2000 i think, the tv didn't work and the bathroom was very small. Unfortunately, i didn't have breakfast, so i cannot tell anything about it. I have been satisfied about the hotel for the money that i gave for the only night that i stayed in Magenta, but with 3 euro more i have stayed another 4 nights in another hotel near Sacre-Coeur, with the breakfast included. I won't send any of my friends in here, because i believe there are hotels with a much better position and with some modern or renovated rooms.
