The hype
Travelers love the modern lobby and rooftop vibes but consistently roast the tiny rooms and lack of basic amenities.
Eklo Paris Expo Porte de Versailles
$80-160 / noche
Reserva esto si You're a solo traveler or Expo attendee who prioritizes a rooftop Eiffel Tower view and a cheap bed over square footage and daily housekeeping.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Rooftop bar 'French Kiss' with direct Eiffel Tower views
- Steps from Paris Expo Porte de Versailles (ideal for conferences)
- Shared kitchen access saves money on Paris dining
Resumen rápido: A glorified hostel with a killer rooftop view where you pay extra for everything from fresh towels to a hairdryer.
Reseñado por @Wanderwithapril: I stayed here with my family of four and was blown away. The family room was spacious with amazing bunk beds, but the real highlight was the Eiffel Tower view—seeing it sparkle at night from our window was a core memory. It's budget-friendly but feels so modern and fresh.

- Bathroom hygiene: Major pain point. Reports of moldy grout, flies, and flooding showers.
- Maintenance: Wear and tear is visible. Broken ACs and peeling paint are common complaints.
- Linens & towels: Hit or miss. Some guests found bloodstains; others found them crisp. Towels are often thin.
- Odors & scents: Frequent complaints of cigarette smoke smells in rooms and musty drains.
