Generator provides a very inexpensive way to see Paris. At age 70, I worried that I wouldn't be welcome in a 10-bed room with so many young people, but no one did or said anything to make me feel awkward. Once I was up and about, I stayed away until I was ready to go to bed. The beds were comfortable, and I appreciated the clean sheets and ample storage for one large suitcase and some miscellany that I wanted to secure. I had to keep my smaller suitcase outside the individual storage bin, but others did as well. The bathroom was clean and the showers were convenient. I enjoyed breakfast in the dining hall - I had the egg/bacon/sausage plate and not the buffet. I was allowed free coffee refills. The neighborhood is fine, and there is a Metro stop close by. I walked to the Marais district several times and from there to various sights.

I had to wait 28 minutes to check-in. I arrived around 9:45Pm. After a long flight that’s the last thing you want to do. Plus while i was waiting, 2 people came back because there was somebody in the bed they were given!
